Image Missing: Hearst Museum object titled Bust (reproduction), museum number 21-32, described as Cast of bust of Poseidon. Palazzo dei Conservatori, Rome.
Image Missing: Hearst Museum object titled Statue (reproduction), museum number 21-30, described as Cast of Panisca, a small statue of a female satyr, a rare subject. Italian marble. from an original Italian marble. Villa Albani, Rome. New: both feet, the right hand and a flute, parts of the left hand, very correct restoration. also the horns and ears of the antique head, of which Friederichs-Wolters 1508 questions the pertinence. “This charming little statue presents the rare spectacle of a female Pan, more delicately and nobly conceived, to be sure, than a male goat-legged Pan was ever made.” the Albani copy doubtless reproduces the original size of the work; for it would gain nothing by enlargement. the original was no older that the Alexandrian age. it was doubtless intended for a garden of for a rustic environment. there is a pretty example at Pompeii of a garden enlivened with small satyrs.
Image Missing: Hearst Museum object titled Terminal bust (reproduction), museum number 21-34, described as Cast of terminal bust of Oceanus. The name does not altogether fit the bust, which personifies a southern sea of vineclad shores. From a marble found near Pozzuoli, Italy. Vatican Museum. Sold to Clement XIV by Gavin Familton. Compare Friederichs-Wolters 1544. The horns resemble those of river gods.
