Plaster cast of Apollo Sauroctonos (Lizard Slayer)
Part of Plaster Casts
This item was lost in the fire in The Mackintosh Building at The Glasgow School of Art on 15th June 2018.

It could indirectly refer to Apollo's fight against the serpent Python or, if the lizard is an attribute of the god, it could show Apollo in his purifying function, as a destroyer of plagues.
