This vibrant and dynamic artwork depicts a grand feast, celebrating the god of wine, Bacchus. In the center of the composition, Bacchus himself stands triumphantly on a chariot adorned with grapevines and pulled by majestic panthers.

The scene unfolds in front of an impressive classical temple, adding a sense of grandeur to the festivities. Acrobats perform daring stunts on stilts while musicians play tambourines, infusing the air with lively melodies.
