tendril, small bunch of grapes = pámpano

Explanation:
It could be either of the above. Bacchus is traditionally depicted with a crown of grapes and vine leaves, as far as I know.

Bacchus
The Louvre, Paris

A number of items were later additions: the panther skin, crown of vine leaves and grapes not being part of the original work. The cross in the crook of St. John\'s arm also had the bar removed changing it to a thyrsus. (A thyrsus was simply a staff often wreathed in ivy and decorated with pine cones, berries or grapes).

There is no mistaking the artist\'s delight in the depiction of the fine peaches and black grapes on the slab, the white grapes in his hand and the vine leaves that crown his hair, but the artist is not content merely to demonstrate his superb technique

Just checked with Eurodicautom:

Pámpano means \'vine branch\' or a \'vine shoot with leaves\' or \'a shoot\' or \'green shoot\'. My Oxford Superlex defines it as \'tendril\' or \'small bunch of grapes\' and gives \'vine leaf\' as the definition for \'pámpana\'.

disagree

Silvia Lanfranchini: tendril maybe but referred to leaves - very artistic noun, often used in the feminine form rather than masculine

-> according to my dictionary 'pámpana' means vine leaf and 'pámpano' means tendril or small bunch of grapes - sorry if I got it wrong

ivy wreath // vine leaf crown // ivy / grape crown // crown of grapes// vine leaves around his head

Explanation:
Es exactamente lo que tu dices, Aida.

Creo que "wreath" es el término más apropiado ya que es una guirnalda más que una corona propiamente dicha.

guirnalda = corona, tira o cordón de ramas, flores o papel para ceñir la cabeza o como simple adorno.

ivy = "hiedra" o "yedra"

pámpano= sarmiento verde y tierno, pimpollo de la vid / pámpana, hoja del a vid.

pámpano = vine shoot (zarcillo de la vid) / vine leaf (pámpana)

En mi "Enciclopedia Británica" se le describe así (viene como Dionysus, y sus otros nombres son Bacchus, Sabazius y Bassareus):

"His personal attributes are **an ivy wreath**, the thyrsus and the kantharos, a large two-handled goblet"
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
He encontrado diferentes formas de expresarlo:

".. BACCHUS Vital statistics: Roman name: Bacchus > Greek name: Dionysos > God of wine.
**Attributes: *Vine leaf crown**, grapes, companions with tambourines and ..."

"Bacchus was born of Jupiter and Semele, the daughter of Kadmos, who was deified only after her death by fire on Olympus. Bacchus was brought up through childhood by a wet nurse Ino (Leukothea); and as a youth was entrusted to the satyr Silenus. He is depicted as a youthful figure **wearing ivy or grape crown** and carrying a wand or thyrsus. Also, he frequently rides in a chariot drawn by leopards."

"Bacchus, the god of wine, actually appears more like a well-built young boy than
a god. He's wearing ancient dress, with **vine leaves around his head** and in ..."

"... Like the genre painters, Mr Gros has not overemphasized the **crown of grapes** and the other accessories
which crown Bacchus"
