Bacchus formerly Saint John the Baptist is a painting in the Musée du Louvre Paris France based on a drawing by the Italian Renaissance artist Leonardo da Vinci. It is presumed to have been executed by an unknown follower perhaps in Leonardo’s workshop. Sydney J. Freedberg assigns the drawing to Leonardo’s second Milan period. Among the Lombard painters who have been suggested as possible authors are Cesare da Sesto Marco d’Oggiono Francesco Melzi and Cesare Bernazzano.
