"Bacchus and Ariadne" is a renowned oil painting by the Italian Renaissance master Tiziano Vecellio, commonly known as Titian. Completed between 1522 and 1523, this masterpiece is part of a series of mythological paintings commissioned by Alfonso I d'Este, Duke of Ferrara, for his Camerino d'Alabastro (Alabaster Room) in the Ducal Palace. The painting is currently housed in the National Gallery in London.

The work depicts a dramatic moment from classical mythology, derived from Ovid's "Metamorphoses" and Catullus' "Carmina." It captures the instant when Bacchus, the god of wine, first encounters Ariadne, the daughter of King Minos of Crete, who has been abandoned by Theseus on the island of Naxos. In the painting, Bacchus leaps from his chariot, drawn by cheetahs, towards the startled Ariadne, who is depicted in a dynamic pose, turning to face him with a mixture of surprise and fear. Above her head, a constellation of stars symbolizes her future transformation into a celestial figure.

Titian's use of vibrant colors and dynamic composition exemplifies the Venetian school's mastery of colorito, or the expressive use of color. The painting is celebrated for its vivid depiction of movement and emotion, as well as its intricate details and rich textures. The lush landscape, Bacchus' entourage of satyrs and maenads, and the dramatic sky all contribute to the overall sense of mythological grandeur and narrative intensity.

"Bacchus and Ariadne" is not only a testament to Titian's skill as a painter but also reflects the broader cultural and artistic currents of the High Renaissance. It demonstrates the period's fascination with classical antiquity, human emotion, and the natural world. The painting remains a significant work in the history of Western art, admired for its technical brilliance and its evocative portrayal of a timeless mythological tale.
