This print showcases the "Fall of Troy hydria" a terracotta artifact dating back to around 480 BC. Created by the renowned Kleophrades Painter, also known as Epiktetos II, this Attic red-figured water jar stands at a height of 31.8 cm and is currently housed in the Museo Archeologico Nazionale in Naples, Italy.

The hydria depicts scenes from Greek mythology, specifically focusing on the sack of Troy during the Trojan War. This classical artwork beautifully portrays various mythological figures engaged in dramatic battle scenes.
