Item Details

An English composite stone garden bust of a bacchante nymph, her identity expressed through the vine leaves and clusters of grapes woven through her hair, and the draped animal skin falling across her shoulder — attributes associated with the retinue of Bacchus, god of wine and revelry.


The figure is softly modelled with gently idealised classical features, her head inclined upward in a relaxed, almost intoxicated reverie, capturing the expressive, sensuous character traditionally associated with bacchic subjects.


Raised on a fluted classical pedestal, the composition forms a balanced architectural element within the garden, offering both vertical presence and sculptural interest.


Cast in composite stone, the surface has weathered naturally outdoors, developing light mottling and a soft, settled patina.


Designed in the tradition of classical garden ornament, the piece works well set within planting, along a path, or as a focal point within a border — particularly suited to more abundant, loosely planted schemes where it can sit comfortably amongst growth and movement.
