全部拍賣 / Lighting / Romano-Egyptian Bronze Lamp Erotic Satyr Equestrian


Roman, Egypt, ca. 2nd century BCE. A very heavy bronze oil lamp of a generally pear shape depicting a humanized Satyr riding a horse in a somewhat erotic fashion. The lamp has a flared foot and suspension loops - one above the horse's snout and one behind the satyr's head. Finely delineated with details in relief and incised - the half-nozzle upturned with a raised flange. A striking example, replete with impressive form and iconography - as well as a gorgeous patina that has developed over the ages. Size: 5.25" L x 3" H (13.3 cm x 7.6 cm) In earlier Greek art, Silenos appear as grotesque, old, and ugly; however, in later art, especially in Attic works, these characteristics were softened to present a more youthful and graceful aspect. We witness this humanization or transformation of the Satyr in late Greek art. The depiction on this example may be modeled upon this humanized depiction. Another example of this shift occurs in the portrayal of Medusa and in that of the Amazon, characters who are traditionally depicted as barbaric and uncivilized. A humanized Satyr is also depicted in a work of Praxiteles known as the "Resting Satyr". Item # 195025
