EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable ancient artifact known as the Hydria (Water Jar), dating back to 350/330 BCE. Created by an unknown artist during the 4th century BC in Greece, this exquisite piece is now housed at the Art Institute of Chicago. The Hydria stands as a testament to the exceptional craftsmanship and artistic prowess of ancient Greek civilization. Made from terracotta and adorned with a striking black glaze, it features intricate gilded raised clay decorations and ribbing that add depth and texture to its surface. With its double handle design, this water jar served both functional and decorative purposes in ancient times. It was used for storing and transporting water, making it an essential item in daily life. The elaborate decoration on the Hydria reflects the aesthetic sensibilities of that era, showcasing scenes inspired by mythology or everyday life. Its origins can be traced back to Campania or Puglia regions in Italy, highlighting the interconnectedness of cultures across different countries during antiquity. Preserved through centuries, this extraordinary artifact offers us a glimpse into the rich heritage of art from Ancient Greece. Its presence at the Art Institute of Chicago allows visitors to appreciate not only its historical significance but also marvel at its timeless beauty.
