Description
Content (description)
On left the herm of a satyr with a long beard growing at the sides of his face and his tongue sticking out. He wears a drape diagonally over his right shoulder, then round his waist so as to cover the junction between body and pedestal. His left arm is bent and his hand is slotted inside the drape on his chest.
On right is the herm of an old man with long beard and curly hair. His arms are lopped at the shoulder and his torso changes to a tapering tree trunk just below the waist.
