EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning red figure pottery lekythus, hailing from the ancient Greek colonies in Southern Italy, now known as Magna Graecia, offers a captivating glimpse into the rich artistic and cultural traditions of the Hellenic civilization that flourished along the Mediterranean shores during the classical era. The lekythus, a type of ancient Greek ceramic vessel, was primarily used for storing and transporting oil. This particular example, discovered in Egnatia, Italy, is adorned with a beautifully rendered female face, a common decorative motif in red figure pottery. Red figure pottery is an ancient Greek technique of painting on ceramics, where the figures are depicted in red against a background of a contrasting color, typically black. This technique reached its peak during the 5th and 4th centuries BC, and is renowned for its intricate detail and expressive figures. This exquisite lekythus is now part of the permanent collection at the Museum of Perfume in Barcelona, Spain, where it continues to inspire awe and fascination among visitors. The museum, with its extensive collection of ancient perfumes and related artifacts, offers a unique perspective on the interconnectedness of art, society, and daily life in ancient Greece and the Mediterranean world.
