Orpheus and the Thracians

#orpheus #thracians

Part of the legend of Orpheus says that he was torn apart by Thracian Maenads


One detail that caught my eye is that the maenads are either wearing clothes under their embroidered tunics or have tattoos on their arms and legs. This is metal work not ceramics.
