- Lot Description
Ca. 700 - 500 BC A solid Etruscan bronze statuette depicting a kneeling satyr, likely to be Silenus. The statuette has been finely cast through the lost wax (cire perdue) process. The satyr's head is adorned with characteristic horns, while his face is covered by a thick, bushy moustache and beard. Particularly decorated is the top of the head, where precise incisions have been used to create a hair texture. The statuette is a wonderful representation of a devoted follower of Dionysus, the Greek god of wine. For similar see: Metropolitan Museum of Art, Accession Number: 1972.118.72. Size: 75mm x 15mm; Weight: 226g Provenance: Property of a London collector; Ex. London collection of C. V. formed in the 1960s. This item has been cleared against the Art Loss Register database and comes with a confirmation letter. This piece is accompanied by a historical report from Alessandro Neri, an international Cultural Heritage expert based in Florence, Italy.
