Title: | Red Figure Oinochoe Fragment | |
Category: | Pottery | |
Description: | Ring foot, heavy rounded body; inside, thin streaky glaze. The base preserved complete, and about half the figured panel on the front of the body. The panel bordered by reserved line at the left and by maeander interrupted by checkerboard below the lower parts. Two figures, both wearing himation, move right. Between them, a large base on which stands a statue, the lower part preserved, a draped figure, standing right. Egg and dart along the top of the base. White, washed over with dilute glaze, and with black over-drawing, for details, for the drapery of the statue. Beyond the second figure, another structure, altar? Part of the ornament near its upper left corner preserved. The first figure carries in his right hand a garlanded oinochoe; in his left an offering tray. A trace of white shows that the contents of the tray were rendered in the same manner as the drapery of the statue. The second figure bends over slightly toward the altar. On the altar is a small dent caused by damage in firing. Relief contours. Possibly the presentation of the garlanded jugs in the sanctuary of Dionysos in the marshes on the 12th Anthesterion. | |
