Kuivalainen describes this as III Style –
“A youth stands on a simple dark terrain line against a white background. His weight is on his right foot and he wears boots and a long red cloak reaching the calves: in his right hand he probably holds a vessel, in his raised left hand a thyrsus with leaves. A panther sits on his left side, facing him. On the extreme left grows a vine, which forms an arch above the composition. On the vault there are red and orange flowers. Below is a lower zone with a huge slithering snake.”
Kuivalainen comments –
“A young half-naked Bacchus offering wine to a panther. A lone Bacchus in a lararium is a rare scene. Separate figurines were certainly added in front of the serpent.”
