    We don't normally do this, but I found this mislabeled at Wikipedia. Now I think it's been correctly labeled, but am just wondering. It's a statue of a standing king with a crown on his head and a scepter extended in his right hand. His left hand rests on a small boy to his left. Of what material is the statue made? Who sculpted it? Where is it? Who is the king? Who is the boy?
