| Beschrijving voorzijde | Nude, ithyphallic satyr depicted in three-quarter view, kneeling to the right on one knee, his body turned frontally as he carries a struggling nymph in his arms. The satyr, rendered with a bearded, aging face and wild hair, grasps the nymph firmly around her waist; the nymph, draped and youthful, reaches outward with her right arm in resistance. The composition is vigorous and highly sculptural, reflecting the archaic to early classical artistic tradition of Thasos. The Greek letter alpha (Α) appears in the right field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Thasos controlled some of the most productive silver mines in the northern Aegean, and the island's coinage during this period circulated well beyond its own shores — turning up in hoards as far inland as Thrace and Macedonia. These years bracket the Athenian defeat in Sicily and the subsequent collapse of Athenian naval dominance, during which Thasos briefly reasserted its commercial independence after decades of Athenian interference, including a prolonged siege in the 460s BC that had forced the island to surrender its mainland mining rights.
