Rome (Italy), Quirinal Hill Acquired in 1889 Marble Dating Back to 410 - 400 bc Greek Votive Reliefs Often Feature Landscape Scenery, and This Piece Is No Exception. On the Right, a Grotto Contains a River God Named Achelous, Depicted as a Bull with a Human Head. Above Him, Pan's Goat Legs Are Crossed in a Daring Pose. In Front of the Cave, Hermes Leads Three Dancing Nymphs with an Air of Joyful Freedom. To the Left, a Devout Donator Stands in Worship, Their Face Radiating Gratitude and Adoration.
