Title |
Fragment of an apulian greek red-figure terracotta calyx-krater (mixing bowl) |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
Description |
The ransom of Hector and Apollo with a goddess: The larger fragment shows Priam, king of Troy, kneeling as he supplicates the Greek hero Achilles for the corpse of his son Hector. Behind Priam stands Hermes, the messenger god, identifiable by his winged boots. The male figure at the far left is probably an attendant of Priam. The second fragment shows Apollo, god of music, holding his kithara, a lyre used in performance. The seated female before him may be his sister Artemis. The painting is exceptional for the rich detail and polychromy as well as the characterization of the distraught Priam. |
