Provenance:
1958-1964: on deposit at the Hungarian National Gallery

Exhibited and Reproduced:
Auctions of Ernst Museum, XXXIII. December 1926, Mari Jászai's bequest. Item 882. (Reproduced: board XV.)

Zichy's Bacchante represents a turning point in the artist's path from many different points of view. It was painted in 1872, the year in which Zichy spent most months far from the czar's court in Western Europe. The thought of leaving the court and Russia was conceived in his mind at that time. The picture draws not only a chronological, but also a thematic borderline in the painter's oeuvre. From the 1870s Zichy found new themes. Firstly, he composed open criticism on society and church; secondly, his art of erotic drawing was refined towards classical, academic forms.
It is understandable that the kind of eroticism, the representation of sexualism and corporeity that had been developed to a higher degree in Zichy's drawing art, an art that never overstepped the borderline between eroticism and pornography, could be applied only in the field of intimate graphical genres. His erotic drawings could not be succesfully 'enlarged' in a form of a painting; the representation of intimacy called for an intimate genre However, eroticism had its 'raison d'ętre' and its suitable form of representation in classical painting as well; on the one hand, in the language of symbols and allegories, on the other hand in the repertoire of forms inherited from antiquity. In this sense, the bacchant as a motive is a presentable form of representing wildly luxuriating corporeality and naked carnality in a manner that was accepted also by the academic circle.
Most of Zichy's great compositions representing bacchants were painted in the 1870s. This picture bridges the painter's graphical works and the huge paintings representing nudes. Both the figure of the picture under discussion and the graphical formation are very strong; the coloring carefully avoids the wild contrasts and impastoed brushstrokes. The composition of colors is moving on a blue-white-red scale, the middle region of which is dominated by the bacchant's sensuously stretching body. The picture, that was put up to auction together with Mari Jászai's bequest in December in 1926, is Zichy's share in representing the genre of nude painting next to that of Lotz, Székely, Szinyei and Benczúr.
