Title: | Black Figure Krater Fragment | |
Category: | Pottery | |
Description: | Wall fragment depicts the left side of the torso and waist, the base of the neck, and the lower parts of the hair of female figure. Her left arm is seen through the interstices of the side of the Boeotian shield of the man to her left. Only a bit of his arm is visible. Devices on the shield: full face panther's head; on either side, a female leg(?). Although only a tiny part of the lower device remains, we would expect the upper and lower designs to balance each other. Excellent black glaze inside and out. Red used to border the shield and to decorate the belt of the woman; white for the flesh of the woman and for the legs on the shield. Fine incisions on the panther's head and the elaborate chiton of the woman. Red line around the interior and interstice of shield. ADDENDA The woman may be holding the shield. | |
