| Title: | Relief Mold of Orpheus and the Beasts | |
| Category: | Terracotta Moulds | |
| Description: | Conical relief. At the top, Orpheus, seated on a rock, a lyre in his left hand, his locks curling to his shoulders, drapery over his knees. Around him the animals: bear, lions and smaller creatures. Mended from three pieces; some of lower edge and central part missing. The mold perhaps never used, for some of the edge, while still soft, was pushed down over the head of the central figure, covering one side of it. Two knobs on the back. Fine pinkish-buff clay, with smooth pale buff surface. ADDENDA Cf T 2403; fragment from another very like. | |
