Description:
|
|
Critics have surmised that the scene, with Dionysus surrounded by drunken Maenads, depicts an ecstatic Dionysiac rite practiced by Athenian women and described by Pausanias in the 2nd century CE. The presence of a tripod on a column with palm branches tells us the scene is set in Delphi. It can be assigned to the Neo-Attic school, who produced copies of earlier classical Greek sculpture for rich patrons in Greece, Pergamon, Alexandria, and Italy. [Information on museum label.]
