"Bacchus(1598)", Caravaggio

About the Artwork

“Bacchus” (c. 1596) by the Italian Baroque master Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio is a masterpiece that invites you into the world of classical art. In this oil painting, Bacchus—the Roman god of wine, fertility, and theater—reclines in timeless fashion. His hair adorned with grapes and vine leaves, he fingers the drawstring of his loosely draped robe. Before him lies a stone table, bearing a bowl of luscious fruit and a large carafe of red wine. Caravaggio’s striking use of light and shadow brings intensity to the scene, emphasizing Bacchus’s sensual allure. The boyish figure, round yet muscular, barely keeps his robes on, inviting viewers to succumb to their carnal desires. The pomegranate and rotting apple in the basket hint at the fleeting nature of youth and pleasure.
