- Lot Description
Magna Graecia, Apulian, 4th century BCE. South Italian fish plates, so-called because of the lively aquatic scenes that adorn them, were extremely popular in the 4th century BCE. The form of this plate is characteristic of this type: a slightly concave plate with a central depression with a rounded, disc-shaped foot, and a turned down rim with a decorative wave motif around the edge of the plate. This vase is decorated with six marine creatures, three large fish - a bream and two torpedoes - all swimming to the left, and three small mollusks. Size: 7.6" W x 2.7" H (19.2 cm x 6.9 cm)
The original use of fish plates is still a matter of debate. Some have argued that the aquatic imagery suggests that these plates originally were intended as a serving platter for fish, its central impression used to hold an accompanying fish sauce or served to catch liquid draining from the dish.
