Artists of this period of Greece are little known and most of their works were destroyed; fortunately the [[Romans]] made copies of the original works, (e.g. [http://www.conservapedia.com/Image:Myron_Discus_thrower.jpg Discus Thrower]). [[Praxiteles]] is considered one of the best artists of this period; his statue of ''[[Hermes]]'', discovered at Olympia in 1877, has become famous throughout the world. Myron, Phidias, Polyclitus, Scopas, and Lysippus were also famous Greek sculptors.
