Hydra der Gnathia Ware

Blackglaze hydria with flaring rim adorned with a plastically moulded egg-and-dart frieze. The body is ribbed exept for a narrow band below the handles. Two horizontal, profiled handles rise from just below the shoulder. A strap handle runs vertically from neck to shoulder. White-yellow decoration: paint on egg-and-dart frieze on the rim, tendrils in the band below the handles and garland of lanceolate leaves on the neck. A band of red glaze on the rim, where the stem joins the body and on the outside of the foot. The Gnathian style was invented in Taranto, probably in the workshop pf the Iliopersis Painter, a proponent of the Apulian 'ornate style' (370-360 BC). In 330-320 this pottery reached its height in popularity. The production of this style ceased around the date 270 BC.

H. 46.3 cm.

: • FEMALE ACROBATS in Apulian Vasepainting Art: After I posted a pic of "Acrobata", Apulian Lekythos from MArTA \ Aug'20, I checked my archives and dug up a few more pics with similar images, apparently all Apulian-made. I can't remember and actually am not sure I ever saw any Attic vases depicting female acrobats or athletes with such 'kinematics', this is quite interesting.. The 1st 4 pics were taken on old phone cam, sorry for the quality: . • Pics 1-2: Apulian Pelike in Gnathia-style [ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gnathia_vases ] 4th BC. - Altes Museum, Berlin, Germany @staatlichemuseenzuberlin MSP 04|2018 . 🏺 • Pics 3-4: Apulian Red-figured Calyx Krater 400-375 BC.
