SCULPTURAL WORKSHOP(S) OF LYDIA IN THE LIGHT OF SCULPTURES FROM PHILADELPHIA AND THYATEIRA

Abstract

Five sculptural pieces from the “Catalogue of Sculptural Pieces in the Museum of Manisa”, are evaluated here in this paper in detail, as they offer clues to the production, originality and workshop of the finds from Philadelphia and Thyateira which are exhibited in the Museum of Manisa. Four of these five pieces are carved as Herms and are of Philadelphian provenance. The fifth is a relief head from Thyateira by Akhisar. Philadelphia and Thyateira are both important cities of the Lydian region. One of the Herms discussed in this paper is a triple Herm and carries the heads of Dionysus, Satyr and Silenus.The other three herm carry the double head of Satyr and Eros. The last piece of this paper is a relief of Medusa from Thyateira. The stylistic characteristics of the Philadelphian triple and double Herms clearly show they were produced in the same workshop. The unfinished Philadelphian Satyr is the best proof for sculptural production in the city. The Thyateiran Medusa relief also has the same iconographical and stylistic characteristics with the Philadelphian works. Philadelphian and Thyateiran pieces provide new evidence of sculptural production in this region. Philadelphian statue production followed the trend of statues with widely known Roman iconographies and typologies which reflect Greek originated but revived Hellenistic models.
