Description
Figurehead or fountain mouth with satyr in stone Vicenza, Italy, 20th century Carved Vicenza stone. Dimensions: 40 x 48 x 20 cm. A unique sculptural element in the architectural tradition, representing a satyr's face, conceived as an ornamental mask and also usable as a fountain spout thanks to the presence of an opening. The piece, originating from Venice and a private collection, stands out for the excellent quality of the carving, the expressive intensity of the modeling, and the extraordinary precision in the definition of the features, especially visible in the mouth, eyes, and beard, which give the whole an appearance of great vibrancy and plastic force. Originally part of a collection of mythological and mystical themes, this mask combines decorative value, sculptural character, and a remarkable visual presence, particularly suitable for wall mounting. The stone's rich patina further accentuates its refinement and uniqueness. It is presented in very good condition and intact. Lot in international warehouse (within the EU). Intra-EU shipping: no import duties apply within the EU. An export permit from the country of origin may be required.
