The model of the present bronze is the ""kneeling satyr"" attributed to Severo Calzetta da Ravenna, one of the main Paduan bronze sculptors of the first half of the 16th century, whose figure was rediscovered by Planiscig in 1935 (L. Planiscig, ""Severo da Ravenna: der ""Meister des Drachens"" in ""Jahrbuch der Kunsthistorischen Sammlungen"", Vienna 1935, pp. 75-85) with the identification of his signature O.SEVERI.RA on a bronze depicting a sea monster (until then, the same models had been variously attributed to Andrea Briosco known as il Riccio or to Bartolomeo Bellano).

The statue is made of bronze and is idelae for collectors of Renaissance art or art collectors.
