Statue of Dionysus (Sardanapalus) from the Museo Palazzo Massimo Alle Terme, in Rome, Italy.

This type of statue of Dionysus is referred to as 'Sardanapalus' because of the inscription on the Vatican, which came from a Roman villa. Apparently the wealthy owner of the villa added the inscription, because he associated the wealthy, opulent presentation of Dionysus with the Assyrian king Sardanapalus.
