At the Palaistra T-Shirt

A reproduction of an image by Troy Caperton, entitled At the Palaistra of 2008. Every young man in Ancient Greece had, as a crucial part of every day, a time in the palaistra, the wrestling school, part of the gymnasion. There he was to hone his skills and his body for the arduous career ahead of him as a citizen soldier for his beloved city.
