Male Herm with Fruit Basket

38
This male herm sculpture wears a leafy garland and supports a large basket of fruits and pinecones atop his head. A herm—a pillar with a carved head or bust—blends human and architectural forms. Popular in classical revival gardens, it evokes fertility, harvest, and Dionysian festivity.
