Description
A lovely red-figure hydria from Apulia, 4th Century BC, featuring a robed male figure standing with a torch and staff before a woman seated on a beautiful chair. She is dressed in a chiton and himation and holds a mirror in her right hand and rests her left arm at her side. The figures are beautifully rendered in fine style, a Maeander pattern below them, a floral sprig in field behind and a laurel-band around the front half of the neck. The rim is wide with ridged rim, a band with vertical tongues around the edges. H: 10 1/8 in (25.7 cm). A fantastic example! Ex John Rilling collection, CA.
