Bacco disteso, dipinto olio su tela di Vanessa Foschi- Bacchus lying, oil on canvas painting by Vanessa Foschi

  • 4 maggio 2018
BACCHUS, BRINGER OF LIGHT Here, of the gods, is depicted by Vanessa Foschi Bacchus, also called the light-bringer (Phosphorus) . At his feet twirls the ivy that protected him from the flames of his first birth. On his shoulders twist the snakes with which his father crowned him. On the right are the mountains of Crete where he was brought up by Rhea/Cybele, his grandmother. He leads at night rhythmic dances. During them the old ones shake down their age from their limbs. The youngs whirl wildly and gracefully at the tapping of drummings. Technique oil on canvas. Painted by Vanessa Foschi. Written by Vanessa Foschi. All rights reserved
