text:
The Bowls Player is an 1857 bronze statue by the Danish sculptor Georg Christian Freund. It is a modern adaptation of classical sculptures of athletes such as Polykleitos's Doryphoros and Myron's Discobolus. The plaster model for the work and the first casting from it were lost in the fire which destroyed the Christiansborg Palace in Copenhagen in 1884. Three other casts are known to survive:
- Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek, Copenhagen
- National Gallery of Denmark, Copenhagen
- Alte Nationalgale
