Louisa is further linked to the concept of the Bacchante by the previously unidentified antiquities that surround her in the portrait. The marble vase on the upper right (Supplementary Fig. 76a) is the same as one that is illustrated in an 1811 engraving from Moses’s Collection of Antique Vases (Supplementary Fig. 76b). Footnote 106 It is also illustrated in an earlier publication by Piranesi that Hope is known to have owned: Vasi , candelabri , cippi , sarcofagi , tripodi , lucerne ed ornamenti antichi (see Supplementary Fig. 76c). Footnote 107 The vase depicts a maenad and a satyr. It is also likely that the legs and lowered right hand of the statue on the left side of Shee's portrait of Louisa (Fig. 14 and Supplementary Fig. 77a) are those of the so-called ‘Hope Dionysos’, a marble statue once in Hope’s collection and now in the Metropolitan Museum of Art (Supplementary Fig. 77b). Hope’s preliminary drawing of the statue survives (Supplementary Fig. 78a). The etching derived from the drawing and executed by Hope is entitled ‘Bacchus from a statue in my possession’, and is only published in the 1812 edition of Costume of the Ancients (Supp. Fig. 78b). Further antiquities connected to Bacchus/Dionysos can be made out in the lower left part of Shee’s portrait of Louisa. In the shadows in front of the statue’s cylindrical base (Fig. 14 and Supplementary Fig. 77a), there is a red-figure volute krater (one of the large vase shapes used by the Greeks to contain wine); and next to the krater on the left, there is a kylix (a Greek wine cup) like that held by Hope’s Bacchante.

In 1794, ahead of Napoleon’s invasion the following year, the family evacuated to England. Rather than devote himself to business, Thomas Hope spent his time travelling, sketching, collecting, designing, and writing. Footnote 2 Beginning at the age of eighteen, Hope travelled extensively in the Mediterranean between 1787 and 1795. Footnote 3 Five volumes of Hope’s drawings from his travels survive at the Benaki Museum in Athens. Footnote 4 Those of Greece have been published and include many landscapes, views of buildings, and architectural sculptures—many of them ancient—and inhabitants in the traditional dress of different regions of Greece. Footnote 5 Hope was a self-trained draughtsman, who attested that he drew from early childhood. Footnote 6 Fani-Maria Tsigakou, retired curator from the Benaki Museum who published Hope’s views of Greece, states that they ‘testify to his superb draughtsmanship. Hope’s fine and sensitive pen outline provides strong evidence of a natural facility rather than of a professionally acquired skill’. Footnote 7 Oh, the magic of Halloween.
