PHOTOS ADDED: I have included detailed close-up photos of the subjects of this bronze from Greek mythology: those being the Satyr and the Nymph. ****** Realizing the petite proportions of this bronze makes the fine detail all the more spectacular in its crafting as a superior work of art IMHO. ******* Included are some other detail shots such as the hand with the separated baby finger (see photo). ******* Evident in these close-up photos is Hayes' genius in the use of perspective. In close examination of the Satyr, I see both the human as well as the animal depending on the point of view. The same is true for the Nymph. Her face depicts a human sweetness or fairness almost saintly. Yet in her profile, she conveys ecstasy. All of the latter is done in exquisite detail. ***** The patina is uniform and perfect on this piece. The color changes are simply due to the type of light one shines on it which is also nice IMHO.
