The Vicarello Goblet, late 1st Century BC-early 1st Century. Creator: Unknown.

The Vicarello Goblet, late 1st Century BC - early 1st Century. This masterpiece of the Roman silversmith?s art was found north of Rome at Vicarello, the ancient Aquae Apollinares (the Springs of Apollo). Exquisitely worked in relief is a multifigure scene centered on a rustic shrine of the god Priapus. He is in the form of a stylized boundary marker placed atop a column. A woman approaching from the right seems to have brought him to life by touching him. To the left are votive offerings to the god arranged on top of and around a table. A satyr at the far left and a maenad at the far right dance ecstatically.
