The Triumph of Bacchus

A chariot drawn by tigers, the god heavy and laughing aboard.

What

A fleshy Bacchus rides a cart pulled by tigers, a follower crowns him, and a donkey-riding Silenus brings up the rear.

Why

Painted by Cornelis de Vos in the 17th century; the record places it in the Museo del Prado, Madrid.

Notice

The tigers in harness look back at the driver; the donkey looks at nobody.

“The god of wine travels with the fiercest animals and the slowest.”
