It was richly decorated with sculpture, including 92 square panels (metopes) in high relief around the outside and two groups of free- standing figures in the gables (pediments) at either end. \nThe frieze, which was carved in low relief, was a little over a meter long, and ran all around the building below the ceiling of the colonnade. The subject of the frieze is the procession that escorted a new robe brought to the statue of Athena every fourth year at Panathenaic festival, the celebration of the birthday of the goddess. About half of the frieze was taken up by the cavalry that bought up the rear of the procession.\nWe offer many custom color finishes like Silver Leaf, Bronze, Bronze with Patina, Aged stone, Pewter, Copper\nAll finishes are Faux finish, each piece of art is hand made and no two (2) pieces are the same.
