Description
English: A Bacchic Roman puteal (wellhead). It's a Neo-Attic style artwork, inspired by Hellenistic art. Relief shows figures in a Bacchic procession, like Hercules (at the image), who, inebriated, wears the skin of the Nemean Lion and carries his olive-wood club.
Español: Un puteal (brocal de un pozo sagrado) báquico romano. Es de estilo neoático, inspirado en obras griegas de época helenística. El relieve representa a diversos personajes que forman parte del cortejo de Baco, poseídos por el abandono y el carácter disipado y festivo propios de las celebraciones en honor del dios. Uno de ellos es Hércules (en la imagen), quien, ebrio, lleva la piel del León de Nemea y porta su maza de madera de olivo.
