EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Faun or Satyr, after a Roman statue" by Bernard de Montfaucon, takes us back to the enchanting world of ancient mythology. The artist's meticulous engraving skillfully captures the essence of this mythical creature from the 18th century. In this full-length illustration, we see a barefooted male figure standing proudly with a goat perched on his shoulders. His muscular physique and wild hair evoke an air of untamed energy as he carries on his duties in the countryside. The faun or satyr, known for their mischievous nature and association with fertility rites, is depicted here in all its glory. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this portrait that transports us to ancient Rome. It serves as a testament to the enduring power of classical art even centuries later. Bernard de Montfaucon's attention to detail is evident in every line and lettering of this exquisite engraving. This particular piece belongs to a private collection but has found its way into our hearts through its sheer beauty and artistic mastery. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the rich tapestry of myths and legends that have shaped our cultural heritage. It serves as both an homage to classical antiquity and an invitation for us to delve deeper into these fascinating tales passed down through generations.
