Object history commissioned by Johann Matthias von der Schulenburg
Notes The pair of canvases, depicting The Bacchanal in Honour of Pan and The Feast of Silenus, were commissioned by the celebrated patron of the arts, Johann Matthias von der Schulenburg (1661-1747). A German aristocrat and general of the Saxon and Venetian armies, Schulenburg settled in Venice upon his retirement where he began to amass a spectacular collection, acquiring paintings by the likes of Raphael, Giorgione and Correggio. In addition to the present canvases, Ricci painted two further versions of these pendants.

Licensing

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1734, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
