Greek votive foot sculpture. Votive offerings are representations of afflicted body parts presented to a god, either in the hope of a cure or as thanks for one. This terracotta object may show the condition of club foot, where the foot has not developed properly and causes difficulty when walking. Made from bronze or terracotta, as in this case, a large range of different votive body parts were made and offered up in their thousands. | |
