EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Paestan red-figure skyphos, an exquisite piece of Greek pottery dating back to the 4th century BC. The intricate design on this ceramic masterpiece is attributed to the Asteas Group and measures approximately 14 cm in height. Housed at the prestigious Ashmolean Museum, University of Oxford, UK, this artifact offers a glimpse into ancient Greek culture. The image depicts a delightful scene featuring a phlyax actor and a female acrobat engaged in a comic double act. With their skilled balancing acts and graceful movements, they captivate viewers with their performance. The artist's attention to detail is evident as every line and curve brings life to these characters. Notably, the female acrobat stands on what appears to be a revolving turntable or wheel—an impressive feat that highlights her agility and strength. This dynamic composition adds an element of excitement and movement to the artwork. The use of vibrant red figures against the contrasting black background further enhances the visual impact of this piece. It serves as a testament to the skillful craftsmanship prevalent during this period in Greek art history. Bridgeman Images has expertly captured this remarkable artwork through photography, allowing us all to appreciate its beauty from afar. As we delve into its rich history and admire its artistic brilliance, we are reminded of how art transcends time and connects us with civilizations long gone by.
