Because he’s Apollo, and so he’s supposed to be pretty.
What I can’t figure out is the figure on the left. The caption says he’s Marysas, so he’s supposed to be the satyr that challenged Apollo to a pipe-playing duel. (Note to us mortal whistlers: Never, ever challenge a Greek god to a whistling competion. Very painful.) So, the seated guy should have goat’s feet.
If you ever wind up in Salzburg, there’s a 17th century pleasure garden outside town called Hellbrunn. One of the areas of the garden has an Apollo-and-Marysas theme.
Dicty
If you check out Marysas’ right foot, I’d say he needs a visit or several to BrewerPaul (Paul Busman) to get that toe problem corrected.

Apollo looks distinctly unimpressed…probably was expecting a satyr.
I can visualize the events leading up to Marsyas’ flaying: Marsyas posts on an internet music/dating website, touts himself as a “satyr” (figuratively, no doubt) with musical abilities to die for. Such blatant misrepresentations happen all the time, sad to say. Apollo, being a god and not all that bright (besides not having to agonize over the moral question of sporting with satyrs, him being an Olympian and all), takes an immediate interest. “Let’s meet at the sacred grove of Delphi for a little wine and tunes, and take it from there”, suggests Apollo, and Marsyas is of course good to go. They meet, Marsyas suggests a contest, and the rest is myth. Apollo invented the word “hubris” thereafter, and made a bodhrán of the poor pillock.

Name is Marsyas, not Marysa nor Marsarse–he’s the unequivocal one.
Though, he’s supposed to have goat’s feet. What do you think, Brewerpaul a veneeric venerian veterinarian hoofologist*?
*Hoofology being not the study of Marsyans.
According to this (click here) Marsyas was a shepherd.
Actually it’s a rather good story there…I particularly liked poor old Marsyas’ final utterings:
Quote…
And while his skin was stripped off the surface of his body that was but one wound, Marsyas complained:
“Why do you tear me from myself? Oh, I repent! Oh, a flute is not worth such a price!”
/Quote…
Some of my friends say the same of my whistle-playing…
(Oh and I forgot to mention…Apollo cheated. Gods do that.)
Hmmm…
Satyrs…unkempt, philandering party animals, hanging out with and going to war for the god of wine, flute players, having horse’s tails (=ponytails?)…COULD THEY ACTUALLY HAVE BEEN THE CELTS??? ![]()
