Ελληνικά: 715. Επιτύμβια στήλη. Μάρμαρο πεντελικό, Βρέθηκε στην Αίγινα. Έφηβος σε μετωπική στάση με πουλάκι στο αριστερά του χέρι, στρέφει το κεφάλι στο πλάι, απλώνοντας το δεξί του χέρι προς ένα κρεμασμένο κλουβί. Τον συνοδεύει θλιμμένος ο μικρός του υπηρέτης, ακουμπώντας σε πεσσό, πάνω στον οποίο κάθεται γάτα. Το οριζόντιο γείσο της στήλης κοσμούν

ανάγλυφα ανθέμια και άνθη λωτού. Εξαίρετο έργο ενός καλλιτέχνη που εργάσθηκε στη ζωφόρο του Παρθενώνα, πιθανότατα προερχόμενου από το εργαστήριο του γλύπτη Αγορακρίτου. 430 - 420 π.Χ.
