French 'Apollo and Satyr Marsyas' Fireback / Backsplash, 18th-19th Century
About the Item
18th-19th century French Neoclassical fireback with Apollo and Satyr Marsyas. Marsyas challenged Apollo to a musical contest. He hoped to defeat Apollo with a flute thrown away by Athens. Apollo won, however, and punished the satyr. Apollo is god of light, sun, truth, prophecy, music and joy. Also the saving god, both in emergency caused by an epidemic or an invasion of enemies, as in any other emergency.
The fireback is made of cast iron and has a black / pewter patina. The fireback is in a good condition and does not have cracks.
