DYLAN THOMAS ENGLYN BY EUROS BOWEN, 1904-1988


Mae englyn bachog Euros Bowen yn canolbwyntio ar gariad bacchanalaidd Dylan Thomas am ormodedd cymdeithasol: partion, gwin a dathlu.
Mae’r penddelw yn cyfeirio at lun chwareus Caravaggio gyda’r teitl Bacchus sy’n dyrchafu Dylan Thomas i Dduwdod, gan cydnabod ei allu creadigol, talent a’i wreiddioldeb
Mae Dylan Thomas yn bwrw golwg feddylgar wrth iddo lithro o’r byd yna i ryfeddu gyda’r duwiau, gan wneud y gwin ym weddw.

Euros Bowen’s cutting englyn centres on Dylan Thomas’s Bacchanalean love of social excess: parties, wine and celebration.

The bust refers to Caravaggio’s playful painting “Bacchus” elevating Dylan Thomas to deity, recognising his tremendous creativity, talent and originality.

Dylan Thomas casts a pensive gaze as he slips out of this world to wonder with the gods, widowing the wine.
