Inspired by the mysticism of the Bacchae, this work captures the essence of the devotees of Dionysus, god of wine, ecstasy, and fertility. Through a vibrant and immersive composition, Sandra De Jaume transports us to an ancient forest where these women, possessed by "divine madness," perform their rituals in a hypnotic trance of dance and communion with nature.

The ethereal texture of the brushstrokes and the chromatic harmony enhance the dreamlike atmosphere of the scene, evoking the Bacchic mysteries—ceremonies forbidden to men that symbolized the feminine connection to the sacred and the untamed. Allegory Bacchae II is not only a work of great aesthetic impact but also an ode to freedom, sensuality, and the primal power of femininity.
