Note 1317 — Chapter X · ORPHIC MYSTERIES.
Reading edition
Cat. 31. Pashley, Travels in Crete, 1837, vol. I. p. 37. A very similar representation of Liknites carried by two Satyrs occurs on a sarcophagus in the Naples Museum. Dr Hans Graeven kindly pointed out to me a majolica plate in the Kestner Museum at Hanover on which oddly enough exactly the same scene occurs. Clearly it is a copy from an ancient sarcophagus. The only addition is that the group stands against the background of a mediaeval landscape.
