The Boxer [2016]

About the Asset

This 3D asset is a detailed digital recreation of the famous Hellenistic bronze sculpture known as the Boxer at Rest. Originally discovered on Rome’s Quirinal Hill in 1885, the original work is celebrated for its raw realism. This model captures the specific physical details of the weary pugilist, including his cauliflower ears, broken nose, and the seated posture of an athlete immediately following a match. The textures utilize PBR materials to represent the original bronze surface and the inlaid copper details that signify bleeding wounds.

Formats and Statistics

The mesh is designed for high-fidelity visualization, providing a dense surface that preserves the intricate details of the lost-wax casting process. This asset is prepared for professional workflows in software like Blender or real-time environments such as Unity and Unreal Engine.

• Geometry: 175.7k triangles and 175.7k vertices.
• File Formats: FBX, OBJ, and BLENDER files included.
• Materials: Full PBR texture set and material definitions.
• Historical Accuracy: Modeled after the eight-piece solder-joined construction of the original artifact.

Scene and Project Uses

This model is an ideal choice for cultural heritage projects, virtual museum exhibits, and historical reconstructions of ancient Roman or Greek settings. Because of its high vertex count and realistic texture work, it serves as a compelling focal point in architectural visualizations or educational documentaries. It offers a tangible look at ancient sports history and classical craftsmanship for developers and digital historians alike.
