Bacchus and Ariadne
The god arrives on Naxos.
What
Bacchus comes upon Ariadne, abandoned on the shore of Naxos, and the meeting that ends in a crown of stars begins.
Why
Reni of Bologna was among the most sought-after painters of his day, with patrons from the papal court to the queen of England.
Notice
The cool, silvery light Reni was famous for.
“Wine as rescue: the god who arrives after the hero has sailed away.”
