Cast Gallery catalogue number: E011

Dionysos and his retinue visit the house of a mortal. The man, seated on a couch, turns to greet the god. A satyr supports the already drunk Dionysos; another removes his shoes so that he can lie on the couch behind him; another carries his thyrsos. Other satyrs dance and play music.
