"The Sick Bacchus" is a self-portrait by the Italian Baroque master Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio, painted in 1591. This early work, created shortly after Caravaggio arrived in Rome, is a striking example of his innovative approach to realism and his mastery of chiaroscuro, a technique that uses strong contrasts between light and dark to achieve a sense of volume in modelling three-dimensional objects and figures.

The painting depicts Bacchus, the Roman god of wine, in a state of illness, a stark contrast to the traditional representations of the deity as robust and exuberant. Caravaggio's Bacchus is pale and appears to be suffering; his gaze is direct yet distant, inviting the viewer to contemplate his condition. The inclusion of a detailed still life element, featuring peaches and grapes, adds to the naturalism of the work and serves as a symbolic reference to the ephemeral nature of life and the decay that ultimately befalls all things.

The artwork measures 67 cm × 53 cm and is currently housed in the Galleria Borghese in Rome. "The Sick Bacchus" is considered an important piece in Caravaggio's oeuvre as it showcases his early experimentation with themes of mortality and the human condition, elements that would become central to his later works. The painting's remarkable lifelike quality and the artist's ability to evoke emotion through the depiction of physical and psychological states mark a significant departure from the idealized figures of Renaissance art and herald the dramatic intensity characteristic of the Baroque period.
