Légende

Satyr playing lyre, 1531-1550. Satyrs are mythical creatures, half man, half goat, ready for any physical pleasure, especially if it relates to wine, women (bacchantes and nymphs) and, here, song. This mature satyr is depicted plucking a lyre in an outdoor setting. Alhthough restrained in pose, his expression strongly evokes cunning.
