May you all be as joyous today as this Hellenized gold statue of Anubis from Roman Egypt in the 100s or 200s AD, today found at the Met. His military breastplate invokes his role as defender of Osiris and the thyrsus staff is representative of influence from the cult of Dionysus.
A small gold statue of Anubis. His head is round, rather than typically long, with what looks like a smiling dog face. He wears a Roman military outfit and robes, carrying the falcon of Horus in his left hand and a cone-topped thyrsus staff in his right.

This l’il fella is a gold amulet from Roman Egypt, possibly representing the Egyptian god Anubis as a defender of Osiris-Dionysus. He wears a military tunic and breastplate, signifying him as a defender of Osiris; he also holds a thyrsus of Dionysus, equated with Osiris. 🏺 1/

📸 me #MetMuseum
Elements from Egyptian and Greek mythology are combined in this delicate figure. The view taken here is that Anubis is represented, wearing military costume and breastplate that signify his role as a fighter against the enemies of Osiris. He holds a staff topped by a cone-shaped object - the thyrsus carried by followers of Dionysus with whom the Greeks equated Osiris. In his other hand he carries a falcon. On the other hand, the snout and ears appear short for Anubis and more like those of a cat, and the short dress can be worn by Artemis who is associated with Bastet. The identity of the figure is, therefore, not certain. Roman, from Egypt, 2nd-3rd century CE. Height: 1 15/16 in. (4.9 cm) Met Museum, New York (67.190)

✨Dionysus astride a panther✨

Dionysus is nothing if not iconic. This #MosaicMonday sees him riding a panther, while brandishing his signature thyrsus and a tambourine (to get the party started). His beautiful robes and ivy crown complete the look.
Image description from Theoi: “The god Dionysus rides side-saddle on the back of a panther with a ribboned thyrsus (pine-cone tipped staff) in one hand and a tambourine in the other. He is depicted as an effeminate man wearing womanly robes and a crown of ivy.” This stunning mosaic is thought to date to 120-80 BCE and is from the House of the Masks, Delos, Greece.

#MosaicMonday - Mosaic depicting a theatrical mask and Dionysus attributes: thyrsus, kantharos, and panther with a tympanum. Dated 60–50 BC, later reused in the Imperial Palace at Hadrian's Villa and now incorporated into the 18th-century pavement of the Gabinetto delle Maschere, Vatican Museums.

#FrescoFriday gives us this #Pan holding a #thyrsus, a #Dionysiac symbol, in this #fresco fragment from the Evan Gorga collection now in #PalazzoAltemps. This is of possibly #Neronian date and is all about fun and revels, rather Saturnalian, with Pan wearing the crown of #Serapis.
Pan, against a black background, holds a thyrsus in his left arm horizontally over his head. A red jewel dangles from the pointed end of the thyrsus. Pan himself looks fun, not dangerous, despite his goat horn and ears. He's wearing a yellow tunic and may be holding a wine jug in his other hand. Atop his head is the golden flowerpot-shaped crown we usually associate with the syncretic Roman/Egyptian god Serapis, husband to the Roman version of Isis.

#MosaicMonday with this one of a Panther and other Dionysiac symbols on display in Herculaneum's on-site musem.

The museum panel doesn'tsay where it's from, or specify each symbo, though I can definitely see the thyrsus.

#FrescoFriday

May your weekend be one of revels… not an awkward party where you’re the maenad left holding the vessel and thyrsus while old mate Silenus harasses Heramphroditus 😤
Hermaphroditus sits on a lounge somewhat uncovered while Silenus holds their left forearm from behind in what appears to be a violent gesture. A maenad stands off to one side holding a small vessel in one hand and a thyrsus in the other.

'Look, up in the sky! It's a bird, it's a plane, it's ...'

Not Superman, but two extremely buff, naked satyrs, carved onto this now-fragmentary #Roman ivory box. These heroically thick-thighed gents each hold a thyrsus, part of a Dionysian scene. 🏺 #PhallusThursday

3rd c. CE. #MetMuseum
📸 me
Tall cylindrical ivory box (minus its original round lid), yellow and brown with age and fragmentary. Here we see a *very* buff naked satyr striding to the right, while looking back over his shoulder. He has longish hair, almost like Alexander, and pointed ears and carries a tall thyrsus (magic staff). An adjacent part of the cylindrical box, with another naked and heroically buff satyr, with possible traces of pigments (red) on the hair and top of the thyrsus. He's in the same pose as the other satyr, but mirrored. His hair is much shorter than the other satyr as well.
