DescriptionPapposilenos Playing the Double Flute Greek Bronze 3rd - 2nd century BCE (5612009).jpg |
"Papposilenus was an aged, semi-bestial companion of Dionysus. He is playing a double flute (restored). Both silens and satyrs were often depicted with this exotic instrument of Asian origin. According to Aristotle, the lyre calmed the emotions, but the flute excited them, as can be seen by the figure's lively and twisting pose." - Walters Art Museum Photographed at the <a href="http://thewalters.org/" rel="nofollow">Walters Art Museum</a>, Baltimore, Maryland. |
