Bacchanalian Dance

Picture
Two Bacchantes, in their jolly dance have forced a most unwilling goat to step to their lively tune.  Does his stubbornness him help?  The one holds him by the tail, the other by one of his forelegs, he must dance, and dance he does!  The group, in which every form quivers with life and movement, is beautifully composed and balanced and presents a most fascinating silhouette to the eye.

(Reprinted from the 1926 Catalogue of the Miniature Sculptures of Louis Rosenthal as displayed by the Gallery of P. Jackson Higgs, 11 East 54th Street, New York)

Height:  1" (one inch, not including base).  Bronze.
