The Young Bacchus, 1930
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and enigmatic artwork created by the talented artist Harry Morley. This tempera on board painting measures 46x36 cm and is currently held in a private collection, made available through the courtesy of Julian Hartnoll. In this surrealistic masterpiece, Morley skillfully captures the essence of Bacchus, the Roman god of wine and ecstasy. The central figure portrays a young child adorned with grape vines, symbolizing abundance and fertility. With an air of innocence mixed with divine power, he exudes an otherworldly charm that draws viewers into his mystical realm. Surrounded by lush greenery and accompanied by a playful goat nymph, Bacchus embodies both wild abandon and youthful curiosity. The artist's meticulous attention to detail brings every element to life – from the intricate patterns on Bacchus' robe to the mischievous expression on his face. Morley's portrayal of Dionysian revelry invites us to explore our own desires for liberation and hedonism while reminding us of their inherent dangers. Through this painting, he seamlessly combines classical mythology with surrealist elements to create a thought-provoking composition that transcends time. "The Young Bacchus" serves as a testament to Morley's artistic prowess and ability to evoke emotions through visual storytelling. Its timeless appeal continues to captivate audiences today as it showcases not only technical mastery but also profound symbolism within its brushstrokes.
