only the right arm and left hand missing?
[edit]The article says that only the right arm and left hand are missing. Isn't the penis also missing? Or is that how it was sculpted? Srleffler (talk) 23:41, 11 February 2023 (UTC)
- The British Museum photos (see under References) are considerably clearer than the ones here. In them, you can see that part of the python, pieces of the lyre and, yes, the penis are missing, along with the tip of the nose and other bits. I suppose you could read it as the right arm and left hand being the only major pieces missing. RickColorado (talk) 15:41, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
