Parco Archeologico di Pompei, inventory number 153652. Photo courtesy of Buzz Ferebee.

According to Kuivalainen this panel was found in the excavation soil outside of the House of Fabius Rufus in 1960.

It was found in fragments and restored in places.

Kuivalainen describes –

A rectangular cameo glass (25 cm high x 40 cm wide), white on a blue background, with a composition of five figures, framed by a vine and a double column.

On the left, an effeminate youth is standing with his weight on his right foot; he leans with his left arm, covered with a sleeve, on a short column, and holds a twig in his hand; his legs are covered by a himation; his right hand is raised to the top of his head, and a thyrsus with a pine cone and ribbons rests on his shoulder; his head is in ¾ profile, and wreathed with large ivy leaves and korymboi [globes holding hair], and his curls fall onto his shoulders; he looks with languid eyes to his left, where a satyr points with his right hand fingers to the left. By the satyr’s right leg hangs the tail of a nebris [fawn skin], and he holds a pedum in his left hand and on top of his shoulder; he looks alertly back towards his master; his head is depicted in profile, the ears are pointed, and the hair tousled.

On the right, a semi-recumbent female with a cloak over her legs and left arm, sleeping on stone slabs of different levels; her tilted head, in profile, rests against a column, and she supports it with a raised right hand; her hair is tied with a ribbon, and her eyes are closed.

Cupids float on both sides of the satyr; the one in the left holds a rhyton in his right hand and balances a small basket on top of his head with his left hand; the other cupid holds a torch-like object and possibly a twig. A calyx krater stands on the ground to the left, and under the female’s resting place is an oval object: a stone or a tympanon [drum].

Kuivalainen comments –

This scene is of the appearance of a youthful Bacchus to a sleeping Ariadne, in a complex setting full of details. The scene customarily takes place outdoors, and the columns may signify a sanctuary. The high-level of workmanship is shown by the different countenances, expressing different emotions ranging from alertness to languidness to drowsiness. The details of the human bodies, however, have caused difficulties for the engraver; the fingers, palms and toes are out of proportion. From the same context comes another cameo glass panel depicting Ariadne with Silenus and a maenad. Both were allegedly used as wall decorations, portraying a sequence in the myth of Bacchus and Ariadne. …………………………….
