EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite Attic red-figure nolan amphora, dating back to the 5th century BC. The ceramic masterpiece is adorned with a mesmerizing scene depicting a lady being pursued by a satyr. The intricate details and skilled craftsmanship of this ancient Greek artwork are truly awe-inspiring. The composition captures the intensity of the chase, as the lady elegantly flees from her pursuer through a nocturnal setting. The artist's ability to convey movement and emotion on such a small canvas is remarkable. Standing at a height of 30.6 cm, this amphora now resides in the prestigious Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford in the UK. Its presence within their collection further solidifies its significance as both historically valuable and artistically exceptional. The attire worn by both figures adds another layer of interest to this piece. The lady is draped in an elegant himation, while her chaser dons traditional Greek garments known as chiton. As we gaze upon this extraordinary artifact, we are transported back in time to witness an Athenian festival unfold before our eyes. This pottery serves as a window into ancient Greek culture and offers us insight into their artistic expression during that era. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' expertise in capturing fine art prints like these, we can appreciate and admire this magnificent work from anywhere around the world without commercial restrictions or limitations on its use.
