Bacchus - 1672 Foutain

Ordered in 1672 by the abbe Jean Ruzé d’Effiat, this fountain is a representation of Bacchus, another roman god I had the chance to discover a few weeks ago, after my Neptune model

A god of feast, wine and vine, very close to the greek god Dyonisos, as Poséidon was for Neptunus.

I was surprised to learn fountain was this old. Another little piece of history forever saved on the internet.
