About the piece
Created in 1880 by Alexis-Joseph Mazerolle, this oil sketch was designed for the ceiling of the grand staircase at the Mairie of the 12th Arrondissement in Paris. It depicts the Triumph of Bacchus, featuring the god of wine enthroned upon a bank of clouds, accompanied by his signature leopard and a celestial retinue of celebratory figures and cherubs.
