About the piece
Painted in 1711 by Pieter van der Werff, this work captures the young god Bacchus reclining amidst a shadowed, atmospheric landscape. Wrapped in a rich red drape and holding a cluster of grapes, the figure is rendered with the luminous flesh tones and smooth finish characteristic of the Dutch late Baroque tradition.
