Kylix Attributed to the Penthesilea Painter in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, November 2010
Title: Terracotta kylix (drinking cup)
Medium; Technique: Terracotta; red-figure
Culture: Greek, Attic
Period: Classical
Date: ca. 460 B.C.
Artist or Maker: Attributed to the Penthesilea Painter
Dimensions: H. 6 7/16 in. (16.4 cm); diameter 14 7/16 in. (36.7 cm); width with handles 18 1/16 in. (45.8 cm)
Classification: Vases
Credit Line: Rogers Fund, 1941
Accession Number: 41.162.9
Description:
Interior, hunter attacking boar
Exterior, obverse and reverse, athletes
The workshop of the Penthesilea Painter was the most active purveyor of cups during the second quarter of the fifth century B.C. The tondo here illustrates the artist's facility with his medium. A rocky setting is implied by the curvilinear forms at the sides, the boar's hide is indicated by a few strokes of dilute glaze, and the hunter wields his machaira (knife) in the post of the Tyrant-slayers.
