EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of ancient Greek art, the Black Figured Eye Kylix. Created in the 6th century BC, this exquisite kylix is crafted from black-figure terracotta and measures approximately 21.3 cm (8 3/8 in. ) in diameter. The intricate details and masterful craftsmanship of this artifact transport us back to a time when Greece was at its cultural zenith. The black-figure technique used on this kylix involves painting silhouetted figures onto the clay surface using a slip that turns black during firing. This method allowed for stunning visual effects and added depth to the artwork. The central focus of this eye-catching kylix is an intricately rendered eye, which serves as a symbol of protection and warding off evil spirits according to ancient Greek beliefs. Surrounding it are beautifully depicted mythological scenes featuring gods, heroes, or everyday life activities. Owning a print of such an extraordinary artifact not only brings history alive but also adds an air of sophistication to any space it adorns. Whether displayed in your home or office, this Black Figured Eye Kylix print will undoubtedly spark conversations about ancient civilizations and their artistic achievements.
