Pastoral Scene with a Satyr

103
This Roman fresco (1st c. BC–1st c. AD) from the Villa della Farnesina depicts a pastoral scene with a satyr guiding cattle near a rustic shrine. Such imagery, featuring mythological and natural elements, adorned elite Roman homes, symbolizing a blend of nature and culture. The fresco reflects the Roman ideal of leisure and refinement, merging myth and landscape to evoke peace and abundance in domestic settings.
