Original – A Roman marble statue of a Discobolus (discus thrower) from the National Roman Museum in Palazzo Massimo alle Terme.

Reason

I think it easily meets the quality requirements of 1, 2, and 3. The picture is well formatted and of very high quality. The statue itself does not have huge historical importance, but it is a great example of Roman Discobolus statues. It is a featured and quality picture on Commons, and featured on the Persian wiki.
