About the Item

A substantial and impressive architectural late 19th century profusely carved pine and lime wood fireplace surround in the Georgian manner of Robert Adam. The shelf perfectly evokes the cornice of a Corinthian entablature above a frieze comprising, a pair of facing Satyr Fawn's holding grape vines exquisitely carved in lime wood flanked by foliate scrolls of grape vine tendrils to either side. The projecting Palladian style capitols each bare circular fluted paterae which are in turn supported by exuberant Corinthian capping to full size detached columns. The opening is bordered by a finely carved architrave, egg and dart, signifying good with the egg and evil of the dart. London Hyde Park, England, 1875. The significance of Satyrs comes from Mythological times, Fawn Satyrs have the body of a man, but the legs, horns, and the tail of a goat, they are the companions of Dionysus, the God of wine, and they spent there time drinking, dancing, and chasing nymphs. Mature Satyrs are often depicted in Roman art with goat's horns, while juveniles are often shown with bony nubs on there foreheads. In Greek Mythology Satyrs are known for being a class of lustful, drunken woodland gods. As Dionysiac creatures they are lovers of wine and lustful encounters, and they are ready for every physical pleasure. Measure: Opening size 1470mm wide x 1350mm high Width over the base blocks 2010mm Please note: Due to the delicate carving, this item will be fully boxed in plywood for overseas delivery to ensure your item arrives in perfect condition.
