Detail of a Terracotta Pelike Attributed to the Manner of the Pig Painter in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, June 2019
Terracotta pelike (jar)
ca. 480 B.C.
Attributed to the manner of the Pig Painter
Obverse, satyr and the wine god, Dionysos
Reverse, two youths
Object Details
Title: Terracotta pelike (jar)
Attributed to the manner of the Pig Painter
Period: Classical
Date: ca. 480 B.C.
Culture: Greek, Attic
Medium: Terracotta; red-figure
Dimensions: H. 12 3/16 in. (30.9 cm)
diameter of mouth 5 1/8 in. (13 cm)
diameter of foot 5 3/8 in. (13.7 cm)
Classification: Vases
Credit Line: Fletcher Fund, 1956
Accession Number: 56.171.43
The painter of this pelike distinguishes himself by his introduction of unusual animals. The lion clearly was not known to the artist firsthand but serves to emphasize the special powers of Dionysos and his followers: the sound of the flute together with the wine makes even a lion tame. The youths on the reverse are accompanied by a Maltese dog.
