A masterpiece in the genre of abstract, mystical fantasy. Executed in an impasto technique using a transparent, liquid-glass-like medium in various hues. Based on the novel "Satyricon" by Petronius Arbiter. A scene in a Roman public bathhouse in the 1st century AD. Two young Roman men are quarreling over a slave boy.
Based on the novel *Satyricon* by Gaius Petronius Arbiter. This is one of the rarest surviving examples of fiction from the era of Ancient Rome, believed to have been written in the 1st century AD. Only a few fragments of the work have come down to us. This picaresque, satirical novel depicts the atmosphere and mores of that period through the eyes of an eyewitness.
