Copy of The Barberini Faun

This terracotta figure is a copy of the marble statue known as the Barberini Faun, which is located in the Glyptothek in Munich, Germany. A Faun is the Roman equivalent of a Greek Satyr - a human-like male woodland spirits with several animal features, often a goat-like tail, hooves, ears, or horns. Satyrs attended Dionysus and this one specifically shows signs of being intoxicated and exhausted.
