- Lot Description
Greek colonies, South Italic, Apulia, ca. 340 to 320 BCE. A pretty, incredibly-preserved Apulian red-figure pottery patera, the tondo decorated with a female Lady of Fashion painted in profile wearing a saccos and an elaborate coiffure, encircled by a band of tiny dots with added fugitive red and white pigment. The form has a large and relatively shallow bowl, flattened rim, and upraised twin looped handles. The pretty patera stands on a raised disc foot with a corseted leg. The underside and rim are painted a glossy black that time has given a beautiful silvery iridescence. Size: 6" W x 2.25" H (15.2 cm x 5.7 cm)
Apulia was the center of this style of painting for the South Italic Greek colonies, with half of all surviving red-figure vessels coming from that area. Most of these were produced at Taras, the large Greek polis in the region. The "lady of fashion" motif is thought to represent a young woman on her wedding day and this beautiful vessel may have been given as a gift to a bride - or graced the grave of one.
Provenance: private Owen collection, Sussex County, New Jersey, USA, acquired in the 1990s from a US-based dealer
