Apulian Red-Figure Kantharos

From the Getty Museum record

A: frontal head of a Nike, flanked by wing rising from a flower (probably a campanula).The features of her face are drawn in dilute glaze. The hair is rendered in a golden brown wash over the white; it is central parted and wavy on either side. B, female head in white emerging from the petals of campanula between spiraling tendrils. Her face and gaze are turned three-quarters to left. Her eyes, nose, mouth and hair are drawn in dilute glaze. Three eyelashes define each lower lid. Side of lip: eggs. Complete and intact except for minor chip from one handle. Shiny black glaze was applied too thinly at foot where it is streaked with red. A reddish pink overwash. Small losses of added white; some incrustation, particularly on face of Nike. Deep, slightly concave bowl with overhanging lip. Concave strap handles looped at top, with a small spur about one-third above their join to bowl, where there is a reserved area; at upper join inside bowl, a plastic female head. Stem with central ridge; foot in four degrees; underside, reserved. After Jentoft-Nilsen, M. R. and Trendall, A.D., CVA Malibu 3 (1990).
