Santa Muerte, A Tribute to Caravaggio's Bacchus - Devour Art

A skeleton crowned with vine leaves and dark grapes raises a glass of red wine in this Santa Muerte take on Caravaggio's Bacchus. A sheer ivory robe slips from the bony shoulders and a deep crimson drape spills down the right side. On the cracked marble ledge in front lie bunches of purple grapes, split figs, a red apple, a silver knife and a glass carafe of wine, all set against a smoky umber background.

Strong side light and deep shadows echo Caravaggio's chiaroscuro, finished with a painterly, aged-canvas texture. A digital artwork by Devour Art. Available as a poster or fine art canvas print in multiple sizes.
