Have a joyful #DayOfDionysos here at Erotic Mythology! 🍇

"Dionysos may not be without noise on his voyage; and its prow is drawn out in the semblance of a golden leopardess. Dionysos is devoted to this animal because it is the most exciteable of animals and leaps lightly like a Bakkhe."
Philostratus the Elder, Imagines 1.19
