White-Ground Lekythos Attributed to the Bowdoin Painter in the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, June 2018
White-ground Lekythos (Storage Vessel) (Primary Title)
attributed to, Bowdoin Painter (Artist)
Date: ca. 480 BC
Culture: Greek (Attic)
Category: Ceramics
Containers-Vessels
Medium: terracotta
Collection: Ancient Art
Dimensions: Overall: 7 5/8 × 2 3/4 in. (19.368 × 6.985 cm)
Object Number: 56.27.4
In this scene, winged Nike approaches an altar with a phiale, a libation bowl used for making offerings to the gods and the dead. In the white-ground technique, the potter covered part of a vessel with a white slip to which additional painted decoration could be added either before or after firing. White-ground lekythoi were often used in funerary rituals and, sometimes, as grave markers.
