"Sileno Ebbro" is a notable painting by the Dutch artist Dirck van Baburen, a prominent figure in the Utrecht Caravaggism movement during the early 17th century. The work, whose title translates to "Drunken Silenus," depicts the mythological figure Silenus, a companion and tutor to the wine god Dionysus in Greek mythology. Known for his inebriation and jovial nature, Silenus is often portrayed in art as an older, corpulent man, frequently in a state of drunkenness.

Van Baburen's interpretation of Silenus is consistent with the Caravaggesque style, characterized by dramatic chiaroscuro, realistic depictions of figures, and a certain earthiness that brings mythological subjects into a more accessible realm. "Sileno Ebbro" showcases the artist's skill in rendering textures and capturing the effects of light on skin and fabric, as well as his ability to convey the weight and physicality of his subjects.

The painting is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its influence on the Utrecht school of painting and its reflection of the cultural exchange between the Dutch Republic and Italy during the period. Van Baburen spent several years in Rome, where he was exposed to the works of Caravaggio and his followers, and upon his return to the Netherlands, he brought with him the dramatic style that would shape the direction of Dutch painting.

"Sileno Ebbro" is a quintessential example of Van Baburen's oeuvre and an important work within the context of European Baroque art. It continues to be studied for its stylistic elements, its place within Van Baburen's body of work, and its contribution to the spread of Caravaggism beyond the borders of Italy.
