EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite Attic Red-figure stamnos, a ceramic masterpiece created by the renowned Chicago Painter in 475 BC. Standing at a height of 37 cm, this remarkable artwork is housed in the prestigious Czartoryski Museum located in Cracow, Poland. The image captures a scene of refreshment and hospitality, as depicted by the figures portrayed on the stamnos. A traveller dressed in traditional garments stands before us, holding a red jug from which he pours water into his cupped hands. His cloak drapes gracefully over his shoulder while his dress flows elegantly down to his feet. The attention to detail is truly remarkable. Beside him lies a loaf of bread symbolizing sustenance and nourishment. The intricate patterns adorning the pottery vessel add depth and richness to this ancient work of art. The figure's attire resembles that of Greek togas, evoking a sense of classical elegance. This photograph beautifully captures not only the craftsmanship but also the cultural significance behind this Attic Red-figure stamnos. It serves as a window into ancient Greek society where hospitality was highly valued and shared with travelers passing through their lands. Bridgeman Images has skillfully preserved this timeless piece for all to appreciate its historical importance and artistic brilliance without commercial intentions or use.
