This sculpture depicts Bacchus (also known as Dionysus), the god of wine, fertility, and ecstasy in Greco-Roman mythology. He wears a crown of grape leaves, holds a wine cup in his right hand, and a thyrsus—a staff topped with a pinecone—in his left. His relaxed, downward-gazing pose and soft bodily form evoke his divine attributes of intoxication, pleasure, and abundance. Cast in iron, the figure conveys the spirit of opulence and rapture with a sense of solemn permanence.
