An ancient statuette portrays Dionysus (left) with his follower, the god Pan (top). Much later, Michelangelo depicted Bacchus as a drunken youth (above).
The photograph of the ancient statuette adapted from Licht, Hans, pseudonym of Paul Brandt. Sittengeschichte Griechenlands in Zwei Bänden und Einem Ergänzungsband. Dresden und Zürich: Paul Aretz Verlag. 1925-1928.
