Descripción
This satyr is a Roman replica from a group of the 2nd century AD probably in bronze, today lost, only known thanks to a series of Cyzique (Turkish) coins and a series of other copies. The satyr is presented entertaining a nymph who sits facing him. The comparison with the first copies allows for us to understand the exact pose of the arms, restored in this version. The satyr dances through playing an instrument called a 'kropezion' (a sort of castagnette) which he holds in both hands.
Discovered in Rome in 1630 and brought to The Louvre in 1810.
