Ideas for Article Enhancement

I plan to fix the citation format of this article as the author included sources but did not properly cite them. I want to add information regarding satyrs and their role in mythology. I also would like to add information on how their role in mythology influences this representation in art. I think the description section of this piece could be a lot more detailed. I would really like to see this page have some connection with other satyr statue types if there are more so I hope to include reference to those.

Here is a list of sources I am looking to incorporate:

Palagia, Olga, and Jerome Jordan Pollitt. Personal styles in Greek sculpture. Vol. 30. Yale Classical Studies . Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1998.

This source has information on the attributed artist Praxiteles and other satyr types he made.

Furtwängler, Adolf . Masterpieces of Greek Sculpture: A Series of Essays on the History of Art. Vol. 2. NY: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1895.

This source also makes mention of Praxiteles and his satyr types.

Bartman, Elizabeth. Ancient sculptural copies in miniature. Vol. 19. Columbia Studies in Classical Tradition. Leiden: Brill, 1992.

This source mentions the sculpture type by name. The author also includes a list of other sculptures of the same type that are not attributed to Praxiteles. The author elaborates on the pose and style of this sculpture type. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hunterkiley (talk • contribs) 06:45, 6 October 2017 (UTC)

Removal of Repeat Satyr image

I removed the repeated image included under the Examples header. It referred to the same statue with a slightly different name. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hunterkiley (talk • contribs) 05:52, 28 November 2017 (UTC)
