The marble statue you described, depicting a man preparing to use a sling, is representative of neoclassicism. This movement often focused on themes from classical antiquity and emphasized idealized forms and heroic figures, which aligns with the imagery of a strong, dynamic pose in the context of historical or mythological narrative.
