Attributed to Peter Casteels I (act. Antwerp, 1629-1683). Bacchanal. Oil on canvas. The narrative is based on Italian sources of the god in mystical delirium. The God Bacchus is represented in a landscape, reclining with a lost gaze and a glass in his hand while a Satyr fills it with wine. Next to him is a bacchante and a cupid trying to pick grapes from the bunch that God is holding with one hand. To the right of the composition, two putti plus one among vines and the other playing with the panther that serves as a mount for the god and a bust closing the scene on the left. The painter shows an inclination to exaggerate his style in voluptuous forms, expressiveness and ugliness. Bacchus is the son of Zeus and Semele: he discovered wine and its debauchery. Hera drove him crazy. It is what is visible in the paintings of Casteels. He is the god imprisoned in the mystical delusion that Rubens disclosed. He conveyed the crazy image of the god of wine, mystery and madness. As Matías Díaz Padrón indicates: "Peter Casteels was a painter of evident and overflowing voluptuousness and strange personality in the shadow of Rubens and Jordaens. Repetitive in his production, with gestures and expressions adapted to the lust of the Rubenian baroque. A forgotten painter who prolongs the Dionysian universe inaugurated by Rubens and continued by Jordaens. "Bibliography. Matías Dïaz Padrón.
