Rock Hudson's Classical Marble Statuary

A TRULY WONDERFUL FIND AND A PIECE OF HISTORY!!!!!

This is A Marble panel depicting a Satyr raping a Nymph.

In Greek Mythology, Satyres are half-human, half-beast deities of the woods and mountains.  They usually have a goat's tail, flanks and hooves.  Since they are the companions of Dionysus, the god of wine, they spend their time drinking, dancing, and chasing Nymphs,  who are female spirits of nature.

This panel was bought  by Rock on one of his shopping trips to Europe and was part of the decoration of his home in Beverly Hills.  The panel has been affixed at the back to A wooden shadowbox frame for safekeeping, which can be easily removed.

A TRULY WONDERFUL PIECE.!!!!!   VERY HEAVY!!!!!   VERY UNIQUE!!!
