The depiction is one that is frequently portrayed in greco-roman statuary, (originally as part of the bronze figural group by Myron) and features Marsyas recoiling ever so slightly in delight with a well defined, muscular torso and a small tuft of a tail fur on his lower back.  Somewhat anathema to the static and languid poses of Greek Gods and Roman Emperors, this brilliant depiction is utterly dynamic, rife with vitality and full of movement.  In it's full form, It portrays that fateful moment when Marsyas stumbles upon Athena's discarded flute, and is taken aback with almost mischievous delight.  Here we can see the supple yet taught musculature of the impetuous satyr on full display with a slight tilt to one side so as to appropriately replicate how the figure would have stood in its entirety.  Of captivating aesthetic form simply on it's own merits, this breath-taking image also gives us a glimpse into one of the classical world's most enduring myths.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"monumentgalleryla","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44634919371004,"sku":"HQ.0094","price":90000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/7990\/4764\/files\/HQ.0094main2.jpg?v=1696119466"},{"product_id":"roman-marble-bust-of-a-woman","title":"Roman Marble Bust of a Woman","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOrigin: \u003c\/strong\u003eMediterranean\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCirca:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2nd Century AD\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDimensions: \u003c\/strong\u003e13.5\" Height x 10\" Width x 6.75\" Depth (31.8 cm x 25.4 cm x 17.1 cm); Overall 18” Height including base\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMedium:\u003c\/strong\u003e Marble\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe head, while slightly worn, is likely that of the goddess Venus, with a gentle upward turn and idealized features.
