Bacchant
Over de sculptuur
In so far as is known, this is the last sculpture Adriaen de Vries made. It radiates the virtuoso and idiosyncratic style for which he is so justly famous. The pose of the figure is very dynamic and the body is loosely modelled, lending the bronze a certain sketchiness and spontaneity. In this De Vries was far ahead of his time; sculptors would only adopt this exceptional manner of modelling a few centuries later.
