Description
Content (description)
Silenus, with long shaggy beard and moustache and wearing a vine wreath on his long hair, looks upwards, his mouth slightly open. He has a skin knotted round his neck. His neck is very short, so that his head seems to rest almost on his shoulders. There are tufts of hair all over his bare chest.
