- Lot Description
Magna Graecia, South Italic Colonies, Apulia, ca. 4th century BCE. A wheel-thrown pottery oinochoe (also a chous) with a discoid foot, a piriform body, a gently corseted neck, and a trefoil pouring spout, all enveloped in lustrous black glaze and decorated via the red-figure technique. Presented on the body is a scene comprised of 3 figures, the central of which is perhaps Aphrodite (Roman Venus), the goddess of love and passion, who sits upon a stool with a krater amphora in the foreground. She turns her head and upper body backwards, her left wrist adorned with a bangle, while grasping a thyrsos in her right hand. Aphrodite stares back at another draped woman bearing an elaborate coiffure, and in front of the goddess is nude, winged Eros holding a mirror so she might admire her own elegance. Registers of repeating tongues and linear motifs enclose the figural scene to draw the viewer's eye straight forward at it. Size: 9.25" H (23.5 cm)
Provenance: private New York, New York, USA collection; ex-Stanley Nagar (d. 1999) collection, New York City, New York, USA, acquired in the 1970s
