pentheus with his own head, or agave with the head of pentheus, or dionysus with the head of pentheus - at this point not even I know what this is. thankfully visual arts can be ambiguous and allow free associations! to muddy the waters even more, I leave you with this banger post by @finelythreadedsky

Pentheus, to Dionysos : wow, ok, so you're really hot
Pentheus: to girls I mean
Pentheus: girls think you're hot
Pentheus: not me
Pentheus: because that would be gay
Pentheus: and I'm not gay
Dionysos:
Pentheus: can I hold your hands they look really soft
Dionysos: *holds out hands*
Pentheus: HAHA they ARE really soft you DWEEB
Pentheus: you and your stupid soft hands and your soft curly hair and your dumb beautiful face are... are here... to... uh... to seduce all our women right
Dionysos:
Pentheus: well good luck with that, because it sure isn't working on me, a man who is straight and not at all attracted to you in this interaction! hah!
Dionysos:
Pentheus:
Pentheus: guards a little help please
