This bacchante is shown lying on a rocky mound covered with a drapery. She is leaning against a neoclassical vase covered with the skin of the Nemean lion and is holding bunches of grapes in her hand.
This marble grouping comes from the collection of the powerful businessman and collector, A. Jerrold
Perenchio (1930-2017).
From 1986 and for 5 years, he led, together with the famous French interior designer Henri Samuel, the renovation project of his sumptuous Chartwell mansion in Beverly Hills to make it one of the most beautiful houses in America.
"I was introduced to Henri Samuel in Paris - he was one of the greatest, most elegant and talented gentlemen I have ever met" - A. Jerrold Perenchio
