A terracotta jug shaped as the figure of Dionysos — the wine served, literally, from the god. A faithful reproduction of a public-domain work in The Metropolitan Museum, released to the public domain (CC0). No treatment, no house hand: the object as it survives. The vessel IS the deity. To pour was to be poured by him. The oldest branding in the cellar — put the god on the bottle.
