This 17th-century ivory relief sculpture by Lukas Faydherbe depicts a playful scene of cupids engaged in a Bacchanalian revelry. The sculpture is a testament to the artist's skill in capturing the dynamism and exuberance of the scene. The intricate details of the cupids' bodies and the lively expressions on their faces bring the scene to life. This small but detailed ivory relief, now in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is a classic example of the high-quality craftsmanship of the 17th century.
