Vincenzo Gemito Art
1852-1929
Vincenzo Gemito was an Italian sculptor and artist. Intolerant of academic art, he associated himself with other "rebel" artists, such as Antonio Mancini, Giovanni Battista Amendola, Achille D’Orsi and Ettore Ximenes. Between 1877 and 1880, he stayed in Paris, participating in three editions of the Universal Exposition. Once back in Naples, he received important commissions also from King Umberto I but, as a result of a mental breakdown, he remained locked up in a psychiatric hospital until 1909, when he began to sculpt, devoting himself, during the last years of his life, to the goldsmith's art. His most important works include Il Malatiello (1870), The Neapolitan Fisherman (1877), The Statue of Carlo V (1887) and The Portrait of the Painter Jean Louis E. Meissonier (1879).

ANCIENT RARE BRONZE FIGURE OF DIONYSOS (BACCHUS) ROMAN EMPIRE 1ST CENTURY AD
Located in Milan, IT
This bronze sculpture is an exquisitely detailed representation of the god Dionysos, whose cult was one of the most popular in ancient times. Here, the god is nude, with a mantle that gently lies on his right leg. He is holding a bunch of grapes with his left hand, and a rhyton (drinking horn) with the right. The god is youthful and joyfully gazes forwards, with a crown of ivy leaves set upon his long flowing hair.
These features clearly resemble those of the life-size Roman marble sculpture of Dionysos exhibited at the British Museum, acc. no. 1861,0725.2 .
This statuette was probably part of a larger composition and used as a decorative element applied to a piece of furniture. Its finely wrought details, as well as the attractive olive-green patina led to its inclusion in the collection of the Fitchburg Art Museum for thirty years.
