- Lot Description
Magna Graecia, South Italy, Apulia, ca. 340 to 300 BCE. A beautiful trefoil-lipped oinoche finely decorated via the red-figure technique and depicting the head of a youthful Dionysos (also Dionysus and Roman Bacchus) in profile. His visage is delineated with fine features and a lovely grapevine garland delineated in fugitive white pigment adorning his wavy coiffure. There is what appears to be a pinecone-tipped plant to the left, referencing a thyrsus associated with Dionysian iconography and additional leafy, floral forms in the surrounding field. A fabulous piece with wonderful provenance (see below). Size: 4.625" in diameter x 7.125" H (11.7 cm x 18.1 cm)
Handwritten on the underside of the base in attractive script, "Vase named Balsamarium of Apulia found in Nola in 1885 - IV or V century B.C. - cleaned and excavated J.P. Baxter."
Provenance: ex New York, New York, USA collection; formerly in the collection of James Phinney Baxter (1831-1921), an American businessman and benefactor of Portland, Maine, acquired in Nola, Southern Italy.
All items legal to buy/sell under U.S. Statute covering cultural patrimony Code 2600, CHAPTER 14, and are guaranteed to be as described or your money back.
