Wine and related motifs hold a special place in Gandharan sculptural production as they constitute a common thread among several visual themes, including the so-called ‘Dionysiac scenes’. Despite their different nature, these themes bear indirect – yet significant – witness to a coherent pattern of shared semantic values, the core meaning of which can be considered in light of recent discoveries, data reassessment, and contextual interpretative approaches.

Abstract
Wine and related motifs hold a special place in Gandharan sculptural production as they constitute a common thread among several visual themes, including the so-called ‘Dionysiac scenes’. Despite their different nature, these themes bear indirect – yet significant – witness to a coherent pattern of shared semantic values, the core meaning of which can be considered in light of recent discoveries, data reassessment, and contextual interpretative approaches.File in questo prodotto:
