Item Details
Description
Magna Graecia, Southern Italy, Apulian region, 4th century BCE. An elegant red figure Apulian oinochoe on small foot with delicately applied white detailing as well, adorned with a grand Lady of Fashion on the body, a large palmette under the gracefully styled and applied trifurcated strap handle, a wave pattern encircling the piece just beneath the neck decorated with vertical white striations beneath two finely painted horizontal lines. Finely detailed spout with stamped spiral motifs punctuating where it meets the handle. Size: 8-3/8"H (21.6 cm).
The preference for Attic vases led to the development of South Italian workshops, strongly influenced by Attic style, but produced for local markets. "South Italic" is a term for Greek pottery manufactured during the 4th century BCE. Five regions produced South Italian wares - Apulia, Lucania, Paestum, Campania, and Sicily. Centers also developed in Teano (Campania), Canosa (Apulia), and Gnathia (Apulia), but these potteries moved away from classical red-figure and more towards less figurative work of the later Hellenistic and Graeco-Roman Periods.
Provenance: Ex-private East Coast, USA collection.
All items legal to buy/sell under U.S. Statute covering cultural patrimony Code 2600, CHAPTER 14, and are guaranteed to be as described or your money back.
A Certificate of Authenticity will accompany all winning bids.
