EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Drinkers Asking Bacchus for the Continuation of His Gifts" by Jan Saenredam depicts a scene filled with mythology, appreciation, and worship. Inspired by Hendrik Goltzius, Saenredam skillfully captures the essence of this classical mythological moment. In the image, we see a group of drinkers gathered around Bacchus, the Roman god of wine and revelry. With their bodies prostrated before him in supplication, they humbly request for his gifts to continue flowing. The inscription on the artwork further emphasizes their plea for Bacchus' blessings. The composition is rich with symbolism as it showcases grapes - a symbol of abundance and pleasure - along with various vessels filled with drink. This portrayal highlights not only the enjoyment that comes from imbibing but also an understanding of its importance in ancient cultures. The print evokes a sense of gratitude towards Bacchus as he represents more than just a deity; he embodies celebration and merriment itself. Through this artwork, viewers are transported back to an era where myths played an integral role in daily life. Displayed at the Free Library of Philadelphia's Print and Picture Collection - Old Master Prints section, this piece serves as a reminder that art has always been intertwined with storytelling and reverence for divine beings. It invites us to appreciate both the craftsmanship behind such engravings and the cultural significance they hold within our collective history.
