- Lot Description
Classical World, Etruria, ca. 510 to 500 BCE. In admiration for Attic black-figure vessels , the Etruscans put their best feet forward with examples that aspire to Attic forms and decoration such as this piece. A very large stamnos (storage jar) presenting an ovoid body with a discoid foot, a flat shoulder, a wide cylindrical neck with an ample lip, and two flat strap handles attached just below the shoulder. The body is extensively decorated via the black-figure technique, presenting a dancing satyr and maenad on each side, the figures facing one another in profile with their limbs suggesting motion, while stylized palmettes and flourishes adorn the field and surround the handles. Size: 12.25" W handlespan x 12.375" H (31.1 cm x 31.4 cm)
Contributing further to the decorative program, we have a band of frets adorning the shoulder, a band of sideways “V” motifs that are somewhat heart- or spade-like alternating with pairs of dots along the lip; a band of similar heart-shaped motifs below the groundline of the figurative program, followed by rays that rise from the base around the lower end of the vessel body. The foot, neck, and interior neck are all solid black.
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.
Provenance: ex Cahn Auction; ex E. W. collection, Riehen, Switzerland collection, acquired in the 1970s

#159350TL hole on the base. Reassembled from fragments with some lacunae restored with stucco. Minor expected fading to decorative program with some areas of repainting along the break lines, but remarkable that so much of the black-figure decorative program remains.Condition
