• Resumen

  • The study examines the so-called “Bacchus from Picentia”, a statue of Dionysus found in 1836 near Salerno. The recent identification in the Archivio di Stato di Napoli of the documentation relating to the discovery and purchase of the sculpture, with consequent translation to the Real Museo Borbonico (now National Archaeological Museum of Naples – MANN), allows not only to overcome the first typological classification done in the 90s of the last century, but also to advance new hypotheses on the context of discovery. In fact, recent archaeological investigations make it possible to attribute the statue to the sculptural decoration of a villa located south of Salerno, on the coast, and certainly working in the second century A.D.
