Ancient Bronze Ithyphallic Satyr – Greek Mythology – No Reserve

An expressive bronze figure of an ithyphallic satyr, rendered with strong mythological character and excellent preservation.

In Greek mythology, satyrs are male nature spirits with bestial features, exaggerated expressions, and permanent arousal. Known for their love of wine, music, dance, and women, they were inseparable companions of Dionysus, inhabiting woodlands, mountains, and pastures.
This bronze satyr stands upright, with elongated ears, stylized mane-like hair, and exaggerated anatomical features, reflecting the comic and ribald nature of these mythological beings. The green patina enhances its ancient character.

Details:
Dimensions: 17 × 8 × 8 cm
Weight: approx. 260 g
Material: Solid bronze with natural patina
Period: Classical style representation

Condition: Excellent. No cracks, chips, dents, or missing elements.
Please study the photos carefully to form your own impression.

Note: At Catawiki’s request, an additional underside photo is provided: a small, almost invisible scratch reveals the characteristic yellow glow of true bronze.

A fine collector’s piece – full of mythological presence and decorative appeal.
