EDITORS COMMENTS
This sketch, titled "Putti with the attributes of Bacchus," is a beautiful creation by the Dutch artist Juriaan Andriessen, dating from the late 18th to early 19th century. The image showcases a group of putti, or cherubim, playfully frolicking around a goat and a vine-laden tree, alluding to the Roman god Bacchus, the deity of wine, fertility, and revelry. Andriessen masterfully captures the essence of Bacchus' mythology through the use of charming putti, each one holding symbols associated with the god. The central putto is depicted with a goat's horns, symbolizing Bacchus' association with the goat-herd, while others hold grapes, a thyrsus staff, and a pomegranate, representing the god's connection to wine, fertility, and abundance. The sketch is executed in chalk and watercolor paint on oval-shaped paper, showcasing Andriessen's exceptional skill and attention to detail. This enchanting artwork is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the Netherlands and European mythology, inviting us to explore the captivating world of Bacchus and the whimsical putti.
