'Thieves in My Garden', Male Nude.

​

An Idol of the God Priapus. Son of Aphrodite, God of Fertility and vegetation, the Garden and all things living and growing therein.

28 inches tall, limited to 100. Gypsum cement/mixed media, 'Natural' white in color, with a satin finish.
(By 'natural white', I mean it has some naturally occurring discolorations, due to the lime deposits in the material.) It is sealed with a clear, satin finish.

58 lbs.

In ancient times, the Idol of Priapus was placed in a garden for good harvest, and to protect against would-be thieves. In this sculpture, I have chosen a young, faun-like, Hellenic depiction.
