- Lot Description
Magna Graecia, South Italic Colonies, Apulia, Daunian culture, ca. 350 to 300 BCE. A wheel-thrown pottery askos of a round-bottomed form used for storing and pouring valuable liquids. The vessel has a sloped shoulder surmounted by a wide, parabolic strap handle, and rising from the front is a cylindrical spout with a broad discoid rim. The cream-slipped vessel is decorated with black bullseye motifs along the spout neck and upper body, mirrored concentric stripes atop the spout, columns and a foliate form on the neck, enclosed black stripes on the handle, and concentric circles in red and black pigment on the shoulder. Size: 6.9" W x 6.6" H (17.5 cm x 16.8 cm)
As early as the 6th century BCE, Daunia was an extremely wealthy region as is evidenced by the rich grave goods from the urban centers of Canosa, Arpi, and Salapia, among others. Daunian pottery, while somewhat more rustic compared to black-glazed and red-figure South Italic Greek pottery, is characterized by voluminous, rounded forms with geometric and linear patterns in earthen tones as we see in this intriguing example.
Provenance: private Vero Beach, Florida, USA collection, acquired in France in the 1970s from an old French collection
