- Lot Description
Southern Europe, Italy, region north of the Tiber River, Faliscan, attributed to the Populonia Painter of Torcop Group, ca. 325 BCE. A wheel-thrown pottery oinochoe with a wide base which gradually expands to a globular body with a rounded shoulder, a cylindrical neck with a 'beaked' ovoid spout, and a thick, applied strap handle joining neck to shoulder. The body is decorated via the red-figure technique with a left-facing head of a 'lady of fashion' donning a radiate stephane, sakkos, beaded necklace, and drop earrings, with fugitive white pigment accentuating her face. Lovely leaves and tendrils frame the elegant lady's visage. In addition, a large stylized, elaborate palmette graces the area beneath the handle, while another with fugitive white pigment embellishing its design graces the front of the spout. A stunning oinochoe attributed to the Populonia Painter who was active at the end of the fourth century BCE! Size: 4.875" W x 8.625" H (12.4 cm x 21.9 cm)
