EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite Early Corinthian black-figure column-krater, transporting us back to ancient Greece. The artwork depicts the legendary hero Herakles enjoying a sumptuous feast with Eurytios and his sons, while being attended to by the beautiful Iole. The intricate details of this pottery masterpiece are truly awe-inspiring. Standing at a height of 46 cm, it commands attention with its impeccable craftsmanship and artistic finesse. The scene unfolds on the surface of the krater, revealing a row of horsemen galloping below. The black figure technique employed in this piece brings depth and dimension to each character portrayed. Herakles reclines gracefully on one side, surrounded by his loyal dogs, as he indulges in the lavish banquet set before him. Eurytios and his sons sit alongside him, engaging in animated conversation amidst their opulent surroundings. Notably, an inscription adorns this remarkable artifact, adding another layer of historical significance to its already rich narrative. It offers a glimpse into the symposium culture prevalent during that era – where feasting and intellectual discourse were intertwined. Now housed within the Louvre Museum in Paris, France, this work is part of Peter Willi's extensive collection capturing timeless Greek artistry. Its presence evokes curiosity about ancient civilizations while reminding us of our enduring fascination with mythology and heroic tales from centuries past.
