Pan Removing a Thorn From The Foot of Satyr at The Louvre, Paris

Pan, the Greek god of shepherds and herdsmen, is recognisable from his hybrid appearance, half man half goat. This group, of which there are several variants of Roman times, also preserves the memory of a Greek work , now lost, which dates to 50 BC, echoes the grotesque style celebrated of the 'Thorn Puller' from the Capitol Museum in Rome (also uploaded on MyMiniFactory).   This object is part of Scan The World.
