The Greek god Dionysus (also known as Baccus to the Romans) was represented in art variously as an attractive bearded man, a youth, tending to sensual chubbiness, or even a fat baby. The figure in art is most easily identified by his attributes: grapes, ivy, wine cups, wild animals or animal skins. Because the worship festivals of Dionysus were a driving force behind the development of Greek theatre, he is also represented by a bearded theatrical mask.
