Alexander Sigov. Europa and the Bull
"The Feast of Silenus" by Alfred Philippe Roll, 1871
In Bacchic frenzy, Silenus, companion of Dionysus, rides a donkey.
Hypatia by Odoardo Tabacchi
Giovanni Dupré, “Saffo abbandonata” (𝟣𝟪𝟨𝟣)
Mirabile è quel guardo della Saffo; quand'uno l'ha veduto una volta, e gli si ficca nell'immaginazione e non si può dimenticare. — Augusto Conti
Eng · Admirable is that look of Sappho's; when you’ve seen it once, it sticks in your imagination and cannot be forgotten.
Oleksii Gnievyshev

Gilded bronze mirror with the Three Graces. Roman. mid-2nd century CE x
This mirror belongs to the same group as the adjacent one with Europa and the Bull (1978.11.4). The Three Graces were eminently suitable subject matter for a toilet article such as a mirror. However, they had a wider appeal and are found represented in many different media, including Roman mosaics and sculpture. A fine example of such a sculptural group is displayed in the adjoining Roman courtyard.
