"Bacco: The Eternal Spirit of Revelry and Wine" Step into the world of Bacco, where ancient myths come to life through magnificent art. This captivating bronze statue depicting Dionysus, also known as Bacco, transports us back to a time when gods walked among mortals. In the House of Dionysus, one of the Roman domus in Ortaglia, we find ourselves mesmerized by a mosaic floor that beautifully captures the essence of Dionysus and his loyal companion, the panther, and is a testament to the enduring power and influence this god held over ancient civilizations. Satiro Della Valle stands proudly as a copy from an original Hellenistic period sculpture discovered near Pompei's Theatre in Campus Martius. Its marble craftsmanship brings forth Bacchic energy and embodies the wild spirit associated with this deity. The Thiasus of Dionysus fresco takes us on a journey through time with its intricate details. Painted in 1517-18, it showcases an exuberant celebration led by Bacchus himself. We can almost hear the joyous music and feel the pulsating rhythm that filled these ancient festivities. Triumphs are not uncommon for Bacco; Charles de la Fosse's Triumph of Bacchus painting depicts just that. With vibrant colors and dynamic composition, it captures Bacchic triumphal processions in all their glory. Another wall painting from Marcus Lucretius Fronto's house portrays yet another triumphant scene – The Triumph of Bacchus. Created by Pietro da Cortona, this masterpiece immerses us in an atmosphere brimming with ecstasy and merriment. But Bacco's story begins even before his triumphs – c. 1700-10 oil on canvas artwork titled The Infancy of Bacchus reveals his divine origins amidst lush landscapes and mythical creatures. Once again returning to Thiasus frescoes, we witness the enduring fascination with Dionysus.
