        "description": "Jean-Honor\u00e9 Fragonard made these four etchings shortly after returning to Paris from Italy, where he studied antique subjects and sculpture. He may have also looked at other sources for inspiration, such as Jacques Fran\u00e7ois Joseph Saly\u2019s suite of vase designs. Though the prints feature the followers of Bacchus, the wine god does not make an appearance. Instead, Fragonard highlighted the playfully erotic frolics, conflicts, and even family life of a group of bacchants, conceiving them as low-relief sculptures on stone fragments within abundant foliage. Fragonard\u2019s creations helped to popularize revelries in nature in French art, architecture, and garden design during the later 1700s.",
