Camel with Dionysian imagery on its saddle bags

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Terracotta sculpture of a camel with a saddle. The camel is facing left and appears to be walking. Its neck is long and curved, its head small, and its legs thin. The saddle on its back has two decorative protrusions on either side and features a large circular design. The design on the saddle depicts figures in relief. The entire sculpture is primarily terracotta-colored with areas of reddish-brown on the saddle. The background is dark at the top and light at the bottom.
