EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of ancient Greek art, the Lekythos, dating back to 550-530 BC. Created by the renowned Amasis Painter, this terracotta masterpiece measures 17.2 cm and is currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. The Lekythos offers us a glimpse into the daily lives of women during that era. It highlights one of their significant responsibilities - wool preparation and cloth weaving. In this image, we see two women diligently working at an upright loom, while elsewhere in the scene, other women are weighing and spinning wool into yarn. The importance placed on these tasks is evident as they were crucial for producing fabric used for clothing and various household items. This intricate process required skill and precision from these skilled artisans. The black figure painting technique employed by the Amasis Painter adds depth and detail to this pottery vessel. The jar depicted here was commonly used for storing oil or perfumes. As we admire this ancient artwork, we are reminded of the rich history behind it - a testament to human ingenuity and creativity that has withstood centuries. The Lekythos serves as a window into antiquity, offering us insights into domestic life, textiles production, and artistic expression during Greece's archaic period.
