Descripción
This fragmented figurative work originates from the Pergamon Altar, a monumental construction built in the first half of the 2nd Century BC in the ancient Greek city of Pergamon.
The altar was built in memory of King Eumene II's victory over the Gauls and surrounding tribes. The reliefs that decorate the walls of the altar depict a ruthless battle between Gods and Giants.
In the West frieze (right side) several gods of nature and mythological beings are gathered. On this panel Dionysus, accomaanied by two young satyrs, joins the struggle. At his side is his mother Semele, leading a lion into battle (not pictured).
