The Triumph Of Silenus, 19th-century Oil On Canvas

An interesting oil on canvas mounted on a wooden panel depicting the triumph of Silenus.
A beautiful scene of Bacchanalia filled with numerous figures:
Silenus appears wearing a wreath of vine leaves, holding a cup, and riding an ox.
He is surrounded by Bacchantes and satyrs dancing and playing musical instruments, all set against a bucolic landscape.
This oil on canvas is vibrant in color and is also unique due to its oval shape.
The figures’ features are lightly sketched, as if this were a preparatory study for a larger painting.
The canvas is in good condition and has a few small areas of missing paint on the angel at the top of the composition in the sky.
The canvas has been mounted on a wooden panel.
It is presented in a lovely Napoleon III-style stucco and gilded wood frame decorated with ribbons and a floral bow at the top.
A very lovely composition, a scene of bacchanalia full of movement featuring numerous mythological figures.

Dimensions:
45 cm long by 28 cm high for the canvas and 51 cm long by 38 cm high with the frame.
