Plates showing the story of Orpheus by Nicola da Urbino, c. 1520.
Orpheus meets Charon, loses Eurydice, charms animals, and finally receives a fatal beatdown from angry Maenads. I didn't know about that last part.

Birds mourn the death of Orpheus, who was torn to pieces by Maenads. Even the river mourned, whose tears swelled and caught Orpheus' head in its waters. Eventually his head & lyre washed ashore on the island of Lesbos.
🎨Henri Leopold Lévy (ca. 1870). #mythologymonday
Jean Delville - Orphée mort (The Death of Orpheus, 1893)
/By one of the versions, he was teared to pieces by Maenads. His head, still singing, with his lyre, fell into the water and floated before washing up on the island of Lesbos./

Priestess of Bacchus
The cult of Dionysus is often regarded as a "cult of the souls"; his maenads feed the dead through blood-offerings, and he acts as a divine communicant between the living and the dead.

Is it too soon to remind everyone about my Valentines (and Lupercalia) designs? This year I’ve added Iris, the Maenads and the Villa Arianna ladies to the mix, as well as my pretty favourites ❤️

having detailed and accurate models, and following them is very important in mosaics. Otherwise you end up with the Aldborough She wolf. I have completed a set of Maenads dancing around Dyonisos, which I hopefully will use later when I set workshop in Europe.

When Orpheus was killed by the Maenads his lyre was thrown into a river. Zeus sent an eagle to get the lyre and placed both of them into the heavens creating one of the most beautiful constellations. Lyre is a small constellation but with an amazing story! #WednesdayThoughts 🎶
King Pentheus of Thebes is torn apart by maenads, led by his mother Agave. Fresco from the north wall of the triclinium in the Casa dei Vettii, Pompeii.
These maenads hold in their hand a thyrsos - fennel stalk, attribute of Dionysus (Bacchus). Bacchus turned plant into weapon, concealing iron points in the head of leaves. His thyrsus is called "spear in vine-leaves", and its point was thought to incite to madness. Tchin !
