EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant wine label print captures the essence of Bacchus, the Roman god of the grape harvest and winemaking. Created by a French School artist in the 19th century, this colourful lithograph showcases Bacchus surrounded by symbols of abundance and celebration. The label reads "Bleu Passier au Bacchus E Daloz Successeur, Dole (Jura)" indicating its origin in France's Jura region. Bacchus is depicted as a central figure, exuding an aura of joviality and indulgence. His presence evokes a sense of merriment and revelry that perfectly complements the enjoyment associated with fine wines. With his crown made of vine leaves and grapes held aloft in one hand, he symbolizes fertility, pleasure, and intoxication. The intricate details on this label reflect both artistic skill and reverence for Bacchus' role as a deity closely tied to alcohol consumption. This piece serves as a testament to France's rich cultural heritage in winemaking—a tradition deeply intertwined with its history. As we gaze upon this image from Valerie Jackson Harris Collection within Look and Learn's archives, we are reminded not only of the beauty found in art but also how it can transport us back through time to appreciate centuries-old traditions that continue to shape our world today.
