Vintage Italian Greek Revival Terracotta Vessel No. 03
Made in Italy during the late 20th century, this terracotta vessel reflects the period’s fascination with the art and objects of the ancient Mediterranean. Its form and hand-painted decoration draw from ancient Greek pottery, with black-painted figures set against a warm terracotta ground.
This example has a tall, ovoid body with a narrow neck, single handle, and deep black flared mouth. The decoration is especially expressive, with a large winged horse spanning one side and a winged figure on the other. Fine incised lines pick out the feathers, clothing, and other details within the dark-painted forms.
At one foot high, it has enough scale to stand on its own, while still feeling closely connected to the larger group of vessels with which it was found.
