This painting depicts Dionysus, the Greek god of wine, in a serene yet powerful stance. Adorned with a crown of grapes and ivy, he holds a staff and pours an endless stream of red wine from a mystical jug, symbolizing abundance and eternal celebration. The lush green background of large palm leaves contrasts with his muscular form, emphasizing his connection to nature and the divine pleasures of life. The vibrant colors and fluid movement of the wine evoke a sense of timeless festivity and indulgence, capturing the spirit of Dionysian revelry. Oil, canvas on a stretcher. Signed. Varnished.
