Antique GREEK APULIAN Black Terracotta Athletic Man Trophy Krater Pottery 11x6.5

Description: We are proud to present this magnificent ancient Greek Apulian Black Figure athletic man is running to win the trophy for your consideration. This excellent example of ancient Greek krater is a testament to the magisterial ability of Greek artisans of the period. The scene depicted an athletic man running to win the trophy and being presented by the king, etc. The piece is incised with a number of depictions of mankind drawings and glyphs. Now is your chance to own one of these extremely rare, enigmatic. Questions are always welcome and if you are looking for more items similar to what we offer, please ask. We constantly have new pieces arriving and don't always have time to put everything up. KRATER DESCRIPTION: At a Greek symposium, kraters were placed in the center of the room. They were quite large, so they were not easily portable when filled. Thus, the wine-water mixture would be withdrawn from the krater with other vessels. In fact, Homer's Odyssey describes a steward drawing wine from a krater at a banquet and then running to and fro pouring the wine into guests' drinking cups. The modern Greek word now used for undiluted wine, krasi (κρασί), originates from the krasis (κράσις, i.e. mixing) of wine and water in kraters. Kraters were glazed on the interior to make the surface of the clay more impervious for holding water, and possibly for aesthetic reasons, since the interior could easily be seen. Conditions: The item is pre-owned and in antique condition. You will find all necessary information in the item description. The images enclosed are with fine details and clearly visible eventual faults and/or defects, allowing making your own judgment. We will always mention, in my description above, anything major that we find whether it is damage or a manufacturing flaw.
