Abundance and Satyr after 1505

"Abundance and Satyr" is a bronze plaquette created after 1505 by Pseudo Antonio da Brescia, a Renaissance artist who worked between 1469 and 1560. The circular plaque depicts a satyr playing a pipe in front of a reclining female figure, symbolizing the theme of abundance. This small-scale work showcases detailed relief carving characteristic of the Renaissance period, and is an excellent example of the rich symbolism often found in this type of artwork. The small size of the plaquette suggests it might have been intended as a decorative element, or perhaps even a devotional piece, adding to its unique appeal.
