Description
The figures depicted on this Roman column sarcophagus are Dionysus (in the middle) and his dancing and music-playing group - the maenads, a satyr and Pan. They are standing on plinths and framed by arcades resting on Corinthian pilasters. Similar sarcophagi were produced in Rome, inspired by examples form Asia Minor.
