Corinthian Pottery Aryballos

An ancient Corinthian pottery aryballos by a Painter in the Otterlo Workshop, with the head of a man and a woman facde to face, him gesturing with his hand, with stylized rosettes in the field.

Corinth.

Ca. 570 - 560 BC.

Height: 4 3/8 in. (11.3 cm).

The painting is closely associated with the workshop of the Otterlo Painter. Stylistically the work is similar to the Tumbledown Painter, the Falstaff Painter, the De Young Painter, and the La Trobe Painter.
