Etruscan Terracotta Skyphos in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, February 2008

Etruscan Terracotta Skyphos in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, February 2008
Terracotta Skyphos
Etruscan, red-figure, ca. 325-300 BC
Floral tendrils with maenad heads

Accession # 07.286.33

The imaginative rendering of lyrical tendrils and flowers is reminiscent of similar motifs on Greek pottery of Southern Italy, especially Apulia.

Text from the Metropolitan Museum of Art label.
