EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork, titled "The Infancy of Bacchus," dates back to circa 1916 and depicts the Roman god of wine and festivity, Bacchus, as an infant. In this enchanting image, Bacchus is shown riding on the back of another deity, who holds a staff and gazes intently forward. The colorful print, which appears to be from a magazine, is from the October volume of Charles Haslewood Shannon's "March of the Women" collection, published by the Studio, London. Bacchus, the god of wine, fertility, and theater, is often depicted as a bearded, mature figure, but this rare representation of his infancy adds a new dimension to his mythology. The serene expression on the face of the deity carrying Bacchus suggests a sense of reverence and protection, as if acknowledging the divine power that lies within the infant god. The use of rich colors and intricate details in this artwork brings the mythological scene to life, transporting the viewer to a fantastical world of gods and goddesses. The image is a testament to the enduring appeal of mythology and the power of art to capture the imagination. Charles Haslewood Shannon (1863-1937) was a renowned British illustrator, painter, and author, known for his work on books, magazines, and posters. His "March of the Women" collection, which included this artwork, was a series of illustrations that depicted women from various walks of life and was published in the early 20th century. This print is a valuable addition to any collection of mythological art or illustrations from the period.
