Ancient Greece, Attic (Athens), ca. 5th century BC.An astounding terracotta column krater finely decorated with black-figure scenes of a mythological processions for animal sacrifices featuring Dionysus, Hermes, and Persephone, all with incised detailing and fugitive white pigments. Side A shows Hermes, the psychopomp and protector of travelers, dressed traditionally in winged shoes and a petasos or wide-brimmed cap, as he leads an ox to slaughter. The animal walks alongside Persephone, queen of the underworld, who was periodically led up from Hades by Hermes. The goddess wears a diadem and holds a flower bud, a symbol of her status as a vegetation deity. Bearded Dionysus, the god of wine, stands to the right, holding out a kantharos, a vessel for wine drinking. Alternatively, side B displays a pair of nude satyrs, depicted with the bodies of men and ears and tails of horses, surrounding Dionysus who again holds a kantharos, but this time stands beside a goat. In addition to this marvelous iconography, the artist included an impressive decorative program. Each panel is framed by a pair of ivy vine motifs travelling up the sides with a tongued pattern above and a design of hanging lotus buds below. Another band of ivy vine encircles the rim while 2 palmettes adorn the tops of the handles. Used for mixing wine and water at a symposium, the form and imagery of the column krater combine to communicate strong messages on the relation of sacrifice, vegetation, regeneration, and the euphoric nature of wine. Persephone - queen of the underworld, daughter of Zeus and the harvest goddess Demeter, and wife of Hades - is associated with spring as the vegetation goddess. Furthermore, Persephone and her mother Demeter were central figures in the Eleusinian mysteries. These were elaborate festivals that took place every five years. Unfortunately, scholars know little about them as those who attended the Eleusinian Mysteries were sworn to secrecy. This said, most agree that the central theme of these Mysteries was that just as the grain returns every spring following its harvest and the winter hibernatory period, the soul returns after the death of the human body, reincarnated for the next life. The Eleusinian Mysteries were not the only Mysteries of the Greco-Roman world. There were also the Mysteries of Dionysos depicted in a famous fresco just outside Pompeii at Herculaneaum (the so-called Villa of the Mysteries) as well as Mysteries of various imported eastern gods such as Sabazios and Isis. Virtually no ancient Greek paintings have survived the tests of time. This makes the painted compositions found on ceramic vessels like this example invaluable sources of information about ancient Greek visual art. Ancient Athenian painters, including the painter of this vessel, took advantage of the large size of Attic vases which gave them more room to explore their techniques, overlap figures, present complex interactions between figures, create depth and attempt renderings of perspective. This piece has been tested using thermoluminescence (TL) analysis by Laboratory Kotalla and has been found to be ancient and of the period stated. A printed report from November 16th, 2015 is available to the buyer upon request. Professionally repaired with restoration and areas of repainting with figures liberally enhanced. Some minor chips to rim, as well as expected surface wear, commensurate with age. Otherwise, vessel has an excellent presentation with strong imagery and nicely preserved detail and pigments. Arte Primitivo collection label on interior. TL holes under handle and top rim.

Circa 6th-7th century A.D. Part of a tunic, the rectangular segment in yellow and green linen and wool, decorated with acanthus flowers inside a kantharos, the crenellated edge with palmettes alternating with dots. Cf. Wulff,O. & W.F.Volbach, Spätantike und koptische Stoffe aus ägyptischen Grabfunden in den Staatlichen Museen Kaiser-Friedrich-Museum / Ägyptisches Museum Schliemann-Sammlung, Berlin, 1926, no.6880, p.123, for similar textile in style. 90 grams, 38.2 x 21 cm (15 x 8 1/4 in.). Acquired 1970s-1996. Property of a North American collector. London collection, 2016. Tapestry technique on natural light yellow wool upon linen. It is highly probable that this tapestry was part of a tunic decoration, a clavus, running vertically on the breast and on the back of it. The decoration conformed to a specific layout with the back mirroring the front. These matching bands, called clavi, ran on either side of the neck. They could be full length or like our specimen, stop above the waistline. [No Reserve]

3rd-4th century A.D. and later. Comprising various figures and mounts including: a sheep, a fly, a peacock, an anthropomorphic head, a mount with a lying feline and a crouching figure. Cf. Durham, E., Metal Figurines in Roman Britain, University of Reading PhD thesis, 2010, item 287 (horse from Spalding, Lincolnshire). 94 grams total, 18-40 mm (3/4 - 1 1/2 in.). Acquired on the UK art market. Property of a Ruislip, UK, gentleman, by inheritance. In the art of late antiquity and early Christianity, during the Christian Middle Ages to the present, peacock held a prominent place, not only as a decorative motif, but also as a distinctive emblematic and symbolic sign. Its image was usually combined with a kantharos or a tree of life. Individually or in pairs, it was usually represented on places which were the ones closest to the holiest part of churches (altar’s parapet wall panels). Votive statuettes were brought in the church by the believers. [6, No Reserve]

Ca. 3rd century AD.A pottery kantharos with a stemmed cup design, featuring a flaring rim, a tapering body, and a pedestalled foot. Notably, it is adorned with two high, sweeping ear-shaped handles, meticulously fashioned. The kantharos, a vessel with its origins in ancient Greece, served multiple functions within the context of ceremonial and convivial practices. Primarily, it was employed for the consumption of wine, an integral element in various religious and social gatherings. The flaring rim facilitated easy pouring of the precious libation, while the stemmed cup design allowed for a firm grip, ensuring stability during the ceremonial libation or convivial feasts. Size: L:115mm / W:130mm ; 205g Provenance: Property of a central London Gallery; formerly in a South English estate collection; acquired in the 1990s from Andre de Munter, Brussels, Belgium; previously in and old European collection.

Ca. 300 BC.A terracotta kantharos boasting a wide, flared rim that leads to a bulbous body, expertly adorned with opposed high arching handles located on the shoulder. The kantharos sits elegantly on a low foot, exuding an air of sophistication and grace. As a vessel designed for the consumption of wine, the kantharos held a special place in the ancient Greek world. It was believed to have been used during symposia, the Greek drinking parties, where guests would recline on couches and indulge in wine and conversation. The Messapian culture, renowned for its exceptional pottery production, thrived in the southeastern region of Italy during the Iron Age. The Messapian potters were known for their innovative use of decoration and technique, creating striking designs with vivid colors and intricate patterns. Their ceramic production reflected a strong influence from both the Etruscan and Greek cultures, resulting in a unique fusion of styles that continues to captivate scholars and collectors alike.

Ca. 400 BC. A large and impressive red-figure painted terracotta vessel, standing on a pedestal foot, having two opposing handles at the shoulder, and two additional handles arising from the shoulder and extending over the top of the decorated rim. The scene on side A shows a seated youth at center, clad in a mid thigh-length, short-sleeved garment, holding a rounded shield and two spears in his right hand, his left holds a footed kantharos, extending it towards a standing maenad, clad in full-length draped garment. She holds a wreath in her extended right hand, over the youth, and signifying victory. Her left hand casually holds a hydria by the handle, presumably she is about to fill the victor’s cup with wine. Behind the seated youth is another youth, similarly dressed and also wielding a spear and shield. Above the central figure is a long-horn cattle skull hanging on the wall. A band of key design borders below and a band of palmettes above. The neck bears a standing figure of the winged Nike, also a symbol of victory, extending a diadem to a seated youth, wearing lower body draperie, nude chested and holding a thin staff. Palmette designs adorn the areas under the handles. Side B shows two standing figures, a nude youth with draped shawl, holding a thyrsus. Opposing him is a meanad, clad in a sleeveless, full-length draped garment, extending an offering on a platter to the youth. She also clutches a thrysus in the right hand. The neck area is intricately decorated with a filler design of blooms and vines. A very beautifully painted and fine example with some restoration.

Ca. 400-300 BC.A large Daunian terracotta kantharos in a cream fabric decorated with several painted bands of red and brown decoration which run horizontally around the body, the lowest of which displays rhomboids. Two strap handles are attached to the globular body and to the flared, everted rim, and are flanked by further rhomboid decoration; linear decoration inscribed in a circle can be found underneath the flat bottom. The Daunians were famed for their beautiful geometric pottery, which was hand-formed, rather than made by wheel, and decorated in both bichrome and polychrome palettes. In later periods, their decorative technique expanded to include crudely rendered figures and animals.
