- Lot Description
Magna Graecia, South Italic Colonies, Apulia, ca. 340 to 325 BCE. A wheel-thrown pottery drinking vessel known as a skyphos of an elegant form bearing an intricate scene in the red figure technique. The mastoid vessel sits atop a discoid foot and has a pair of loop handles emanating off the thin rim. On one side is a nude male youth facing to the left with delineated musculature, his hands grasping a black-lined cloak as well as a curved implement, and his head bearing one triangular eye beneath a curly coiffure. Illustrated on the opposite side is an elegant woman standing in contrapposto while wearing a flowing himation and holding a petite vessel in her right hand, perhaps a pyxis. Large palmettes and spiraling volutes beneath each handle separate the two figures into their own respective halves. Size: 7.25" W x 3.75" H (18.4 cm x 9.5 cm)
This piece has been tested using thermoluminescence (TL) analysis and has been found to be ancient and of the period stated. A full report will accompany purchase.
