Pierre Le Faguays is one of the most well-known artists of the Art Deco period. The French sculptor, who lived from 1892 to 1962, created numerous feminine sculptures such as this decorative statue of a woman. This statue tells the story of a bacchanalian dancer. Inspired by the mythological character of Dionysus, the beautiful young woman holds the thyros staff in her hands, which in Greek mythology is the steady companion of the god of wine and his entourage. The staff, which is usually entwined in vine leaves, is the symbol für the bacchanals and the related attitude to life.
