Unnumbered, half-page image with two bacchantes (or Maenads); the figure at left hangs a festoon, while the figure at right holds a thyrsus. This image appears below plate 71, which is after a fragment from the same relief and is identified by the same title. These images appear at the end of the volume, in a section of nineteen plates (and four half-page unnumbered images) with ancient statues and bas-reliefs. Unlike the plates in the rest of the volume, these are not accompanied by descriptive text.
