Description
Content (description)
Silenus les drunk on the ground. Pan tries to raise him. In the background stands a big goat, to which a Pan sitting on left offers grapes in a cornucopia. A putto sits by Pan and eats grapes; he holds a torch in his other hand. There is an ass in the background. In the centre background a satyr moves left playing a large spiral horn, followed by a Panesse who holds a snake in a cista. A butterfly flies behind. On right a Pan plays a horn to left and a Panesse carries a basket. A young Pan lies on the ground bottom right. At bottom left are Pan pipes and a basket of grapes. In the background are trees and vines.
