Fries met een triomfwagen waarin de jonge Bacchus zit 1510 - 1550

This small, intricate engraving by Sebald Beham, titled "Fries met een triomfwagen waarin de jonge Bacchus zit," depicts a procession of cherubs escorting a chariot carrying a young Bacchus. The scene is likely based on Roman mythology and showcases the artist’s skill in depicting detailed figures and intricate ornamentation. The work, dating to the early 16th century, exemplifies the Renaissance fascination with classical themes and demonstrates Beham's mastery of the engraving technique, a popular medium of the era. This small-scale print, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to the enduring power of classical imagery and the technical prowess of a prominent Renaissance artist.
