This miniature represents a Greek hoplite from the Classical era — a heavily armed citizen-soldier who fought in the iconic phalanx formation. Equipped with a bronze helmet, spear, and round shield (aspis), the hoplite was a symbol of civic duty, unity, and shared identity in the ancient Greek polis.
The hoplite’s disciplined ranks and coordinated movement played a defining role in the battles of the Persian Wars and later conflicts among Greek city-states.
This figure is cast in high-quality white metal (tin) and hand-painted with layered shading, highlighting, and fine detail work to bring out realistic armor reflections, textiles, and facial expression. Mounted on a display-ready scenic base, this piece is ideal for collectors of historical miniature art.
