Attic 550-500 B.C. Clay, added red paint. H. max. 9 1/16 in; 23 cm
The fragments of this finely painted, exceptionally bulbous jug with narrow handles were joined together with the help of restorations in reserve. In the preserved trapezoidal section of both picture fields, two naked, bearded revelers at a symposion stride towards each other and raise a cup or rhyton. Both men with cups hold a seven-stringed lyre with taenia in the other, lowered hand as if they had just finished playing. Many details, such as the strings, are finely incised. The beards and two encircling lines on the belly in added red. A lotus bud frieze at the top and a simple line on the other three sides frame the image. The remainder of the fragments and the neck are glazed black on the inside.
Misfired around the base of the missing handle. Three quarters of the other handle preserved.
Formerly Gallery Susanne Albrecht, 2001, Munich.
