Fine condition. Property of a West Yorkshire lady; acquired from BidAncient, Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, UK, 15 June 2005; with the original Certificate of Authenticity, bank receipt and correspondence. See Mattusch, C. Pompeii and the Roman Villa: Art and Culture Around the Bay of Naples, London, 2008, for similar examples. Previously identified as the goddess Diana, the appliqué is that of a maenad, a female follower of Bacchus, god of wine. The characteristic features of the maenads were a wreath of ivy and vine leaves, as well as a cloak made from the skin of a fawn, all of which are present on this piece. The wide expressive eyes on this piece suggest ritual intoxication and ecstatic frenzy for which the maenads were noted during their worship of Bacchus.
