Marble Dionysos , XVII Century
An over life-sized marble bust of Dionysus, France, 17th Century.
A powerful carved marble bust of Dionysus, modelled with broad shoulders, Baroque drapery and deeply cut curls.
The god is unusually shown with a full beard - echoing earlier Hellenistic types rather than the more familiar, youthful examples.
