GREEK APULIAN RED-FIGURE PLATE DEPICTING THE LADY OF FASHION DRESSING SAKKOS
Ca. 320 - 300 BC.
A black-glazed raised plate, featuring a red-figure decoration with yellow and white details. It is embellished with a profile portrait of a noblewoman, depicted facing left.

The portrait is encircled by concentric bands featuring a wave pattern, white strokes with dots, and the rim of the plate is decorated with black tongues. In contrast, the lower side of the plate remains devoid of ornamentation, presenting a plain, unadorned surface. For similar see, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Accession Number: 06.1021.229.
