In the depths of Nyssa Heights, Malheur County, Oregon in 1939, Mrs. Botner meticulously arranges her storage cellar. As captured by Dorothea Lange's lens, this snapshot reveals a glimpse into the organized chaos that lies beneath the surface. The interior of Mrs. Botner's storage cellar is a sight to behold - shelves upon shelves filled with jars and containers holding an assortment of preserved goods, and is here that she keeps her treasures safe from time and decay. Amongst these vessels stands an ancient relic - an amphora dating back to the 4th century BCE. Its creator remains unknown but its craftsmanship speaks volumes about the skill and artistry of those who came before us. As we delve deeper into history, we encounter more amphoras - each one telling its own story through intricate designs and delicate brushstrokes. From the Michigan Painter's creation in 490-480 BCE to Ixion Painter's masterpiece from 340-330 BCE, these jars transport us back in time to ancient civilizations where they were used for storing precious commodities. The Ivy-Leaf Group presents their contribution with an amphora crafted between 530-520 BCE while Achilles Painter showcases his talent with a jar dating back to 460-450 BCE. The Sabouroff Painter adds another layer of beauty with their creation from 455-445 BCE. Moving forward through time, we come across another terracotta marvel - an amphora created around 530-520 B. C. , using the black-figure technique. This technique brings depth and detail to life on its surface as it holds stories within its clay walls. Not limited solely to Greece, our journey takes us further west where we encounter a pelike storage jar from about 510-500 BCE whose creator remains unknown but leaves behind a lasting legacy nonetheless. Fast-forwarding centuries later brings us closer to modern times as Edward William Farrar crafts a jar in the year 1830.
