EDITORS COMMENTS
This sketch, titled "Sketch for the town hall of Suresnes: Circle of Bacchantes (central ceiling)" by Edouard Michel Lancon, dates back to 1898. The artwork is a preliminary design for the central ceiling decoration of the town hall in Suresnes, a suburb of Paris, France. The concept revolves around the lively scene of a circle of Bacchantes and their attendant putti, or cherubs, in a festive and joyful atmosphere. Bacchantes, also known as Maenads in Greek mythology, are the female followers of the god Bacchus, the Roman god of wine, fertility, and ritual madness. They are depicted here in various stages of dance, some playing musical instruments, while others are in a trance-like state, lost in the moment. The cherubs, or amorini, are depicted as winged infants, playfully interacting with the Bacchantes. The sketch is rendered in oil on canvas, with a rich and vibrant color palette. The central focus of the composition is an octagonal panel, which is a common architectural feature in the town hall's interior design. The panel is adorned with clouds and weather elements, adding to the ethereal and dreamlike quality of the scene. This artwork is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of France and its historic institutions. It is currently housed in one of Paris's renowned museums, the Petit Palais. The sketch provides a glimpse into the artistic vision and creativity of Edouard Michel Lancon, a French artist of the 19th century, whose works continue to inspire and captivate audiences to this day.
