Silenus Bronze Sculpture from Pompeii (reproduction)
Technique: lost-wax casting.
The spirit of the dance of squeezing of grapes. Our reproduction was made from a cast of the original from an Italian fonderia of the 20th century.
The statue was found in Pompeii on May 2 1864, has since been in the Archaeological Museum of Naples. The sculpture, which measures 62 cm, depicts a Silenus raising the body of a snake, with the intention of throwing him to the ground.
The sculpture has one typically archaeological patina and there are represented in great detail the shoes and vine leaves in the hair of the silenus.
In the years following its discovery, the statue became well known becoming a cult object for travelers of the Grand Tour in Italy.
