Terracotta Greek Gorgon Head Antefix in the Study Collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Sept. 2007
Title: Terracotta painted gorgoneion antefix (roof tile)
Medium; Technique: Terracotta, paint; mold-made
Culture: Greek, South Italian, Tarentine
Period: Archaic
Date: ca. 540 B.C.
Dimensions: H. 8 1/4 in. (21 cm.) W. 10 5/16 in. (26.2 cm.) Depth as preserved 3 11/16 in. (9.4 cm.)
Classification: Terracottas
Credit Line: Harris Brisbane Dick Fund, 1939
Accession Number: 39.11.9
Description:
The clear modeling and the vivid traces of paint make this antefix a fine example of its kind. Although the colors (yellow, red, and blue) may appear faded now, their original hue would have been rich and pronounced, appropriate for the frightful theme and its high placement.
