Kuivalainen comments –
“This is the high point of the thiasus; all the participants are depicted in their colourful finery, and music is played in the procession. The artist shows a considerable level of skill in presenting his figures from many different viewpoints and with foreshortenings in a tight composition. Ariadne is depicted taking care of the intoxicated Bacchus. Silenus is riding a donkey, as in the wall painting in the Casa delle Amazzoni, B16.”
