Silvanus Silvanus is shown as a naked man with accented genitals standing full weight on his right foot while his left is rotated to the left. On his feet he wears low boots with accented bootleg rims. A creased cloak is draped over his left shoulder and conceals his left hand. Is is clasped on his right shoulder. The cloak serves as a bundle for carrying six apples. He holds his right arm close to his body. His right forearm is raised at the elbow, towards his chest. Three more apples are visible in the right hand. Both hand and fingers are overproportionate. The head is large and turned to the left. The large eyes are interestingly stylized. The eyes, as are the nose and small pressed lips, are overtly emphasized. The hair is divided into large strands and reaches from the crown of the head to the forehead and back of the head. The whole figure leans on a bent plate which is connected to the statute from behind by means of a support. It may be concluded that it served as a decoration for some sort of receptacle. Traces of remaining joins indicate that the figure has not been treated fully. - 1st century A.D. -Height with plate for affixation: 10,9 cm; H with base: 9,1 cm; bronze - Novi Banovci (Burgenae) - ZAM, Inv. no. 4651.
