Attachments Depicting Busts of Silenoi, Roman Bronze

Two green-patinated bronze attachments show bearded Silenoi, mythological companions of Dionysus, with ivy wreaths, curled beards, and pointed ears. Each figure leans forward, its arms and torso merging into a curved, mask-like base, with flecks of lighter metal across the surface.
