Caption

Figure of Dionysos from the east pediment of the Parthenon The Acropolis / Athens / Greece / about 438-432 BC. The central section of the east pediment of the Parthenon showed the Birth of Athena. The myth was not often depicted in classical times / although it had been popular in the Archaic period / especially on vases. This reclining figure almost certainly represents Dionysos / god of wine
