CATALOGUE OF SCULPTURE.
SATYRS, ETC.
1647. A youthful Satyr, looking up with a laughing ex-
pression. The ears are pointed and he has small horns.
He stands, with the right foot somewhat advanced, and
wears a fawnskin, knotted on the left shoulder, and
hanging down the right side. He holds a syrinx in the
right hand, and a pedum in the left hand (both restored).
A stump by his side (restored).—Towneley Coll.
Parian (?) marble. Height (without plinth), 3 feet 8| inches.
Restorations (by Algardi, 1592-1654) : arms from above elbows,
legs from knees downwards, and trunk supporting left side.
The pedum in the left hand is correctly restored, as a portion
of it still remains attached to the upper part of the arm.
From the Maccarani Palace, Rome, 1768. Mus. Marbles, II.,
pi. 24; Dallaway, p. 307; Ellis, Toim. Gall.,I.,-p. 178 ( = Vaux,
Handbook, p. 213); Clarac, IV., pi. 710, No. 1690 ; Graco-Roman
Guide, I., No. 183 ; Mansell, No. 837.
1648. Statue of a young Satyr, probably pouring wine. A
slim nude figure, stands mainly on the left leg. The left
arm (now wanting from the elbow) was advanced before
the left thigh, and the right arm, now wanting from the
deltoid, was lifted. Two projecting pieces on the side of
the head and over the forehead, probably formed supports
for the right hand, which may be supposed to have held
a small jug, pouring out wine into a cup held out in the
left hand. He has pointed ears and short curly hair,
confined by a broad band, and a wreath with clusters of
ivy berries. The head looks downwards towards the left
hand. The tail is wanting, as usual in this class of
figures.—From Castel Gandolfo.
Fine-grained marble. Height, 4 feet 9f inches. Unrestored. This
statue was found with three others, all of which passed from
the Chigi collection into the Augusteum at Dresden. It was
obtained from that Museum in exchange for casts, in 1838.
