Item Details

Description

Ancient Greece, Corinth, ca. first half of the 6th century BCE. An attractive aryballos (a vessel used to hold scented oils and perfumes in the bath) of a classic apple-shaped form with a circular flat rim and a single wide, short strap handle. The body is decorated with a large siren standing upon petite avian feet with open wings, a broad feathered tail, and a prominent chest supporting a long neck and an anthropomorphic head. Behind either wing is an abstract phytomorphic form similar to a seed pod. Both seed pods and the siren are decorated with incised designs. A small border of tongue-shaped forms surround the neck above a set of concentric circles. Size: 3.375" W x 3.75" H (8.6 cm x 9.5 cm).

During this time, Corinthian ceramics showed the influence of eastern trade connections with the city - creating art with stylized plants and animal friezes, inspired by trade with the Levant, Egypt, and Assyria. This is known as the "Orientalizing Period."
