🔹A young man lies stretched wide out on a rock. His posture appears provocatively lascivious. His head has sunk to his shoulder. His right arm folds back behind his head, his left arm, today broken off, hung sideways over a rocky spur.
The young man appears to be fast asleep. But is he really? When you look more closely, you will see that you are wrong. His rough and yet at the same time sensuous face is strained. His eyebrows are knitted over his closed eyelids. His open mouth indicates heavy breathing. The ivy wreath in his hair lets us know the reason, for such wreaths are worn above all by revellers. Intoxicated by wine and exhausted from dancing and revelling, the young man has fallen into a fitful, restless doze.
The meaning and the function of the figure can only be appreciated when you go round the other side of the statue. The little horse's tail that becomes evident from the back identifies the young man as a satyr, one of those half-animal beings from the entourage of Dionysus, the god of ecstasy. So this is not a human being at all, but a mythical being. So it fits that his size far exceeds human dimensions.
🌟Original Sculpture Details🌟
Date: 2nd Century BC
Period: Hellenistic
🌟Material & Process🌟
Our products are made using high-detail resin-based 3D printing technology. This method ensures a smooth surface and reveals even the finest details with precision.
🌟Post-3D Printing Process🌟
Although our products come out of the machine with all their details intact, these details are not visually striking enough before post-processing. That’s why we apply a primer, white matte paint, and a velvet matte varnish to each piece. This results in high contrast, eliminates glare under light, and enhances the tactile experience.
📌Our products are lightweight due to the 3D printing process. The weight may be surprising when held, as it cannot be accurately judged by appearance alone. Generally, they weigh under 500 grams. Despite their lightness, our 3D printed items are more durable and resistant to impact. If you prefer a heavier product, we can add weight upon request, though this will incur an additional shipping fee. Please contact us for more details.
