SILENUS Print - Limited Edition of 100

Often, Silenus (Satyr) was depicted as a jolly older man, overweight and covered in large amounts of hair and nearly bald. The only supernatural element to Silenus’ appearance was that he’d frequently be depicted with the ears and tail of a donkey. Other times, he would have the ears, tail and legs of a horse. This contrasts with the satyrs, who blend the features of a human with that of a goat. When Silenus would travel in Dionysus’ group of companions, he was nearly always drunk, and would either ride on a donkey or be supported by the satyrs. His great fondness for wine is one of the main characteristics of Silenus. It was believed that Silenus’ drunken state would give him access to mystical wisdom, and he was sought out as a source of knowledge and prophesy of the future.
