Description: | Inscribed fragment of relief. Back surface much broken, but thickeness apparently preserved. The fragment is separated into two parts by a horizontal moulding, consisting of a flattened ovolo and a taenia. The fragmentary inscription is on this last. Above, a satyr (head and shoulders missing) is seated on a rock covered by a goat skin. He faces left, playing the pipes. In front of him a blazing fire rises from the ground. Below, little remains save a fish, leaping to inscription, from beside a tower-like object, the latter in very low relief. To the left, two indistinguishable breaks, one toward the center, the other at the left edge on the piece. Pentelic marble. ADDENDA Joins with I 1759. | |
