Description

The bacchantine, naked except for a few leaf tendrils, strides lively forward, beating her pelvis with both hands raised high. The upper part of the body is tilted backwards and the face is turned sideways and downwards towards a ram, which strives up to the bacchantine from behind. Idealistic-naturalistic genre.
