Triptolemos Painter, Oinochoe ('Eurymedon Jug' or 'Persian Jug'), clay, quickly turned, painted (ceramic), alternately fired, clay, painted and fired, Total: Height: 23.8 cm (with supplemented mouth); Diameter: 13.3 cm; Base diameter: 8.1 cm; Height: 20.5 cm (without supplemented mouth), inscription: Beginning on the right side of the mouth of the Greek, diagonally downwards to the right foot of the Persian: [], h, Ceramics, Peoples and Nationalities, Strict Style, The Oinochoe probably carries one of the most important representations of Greek vase art with historical reference. On side A a Greek running to the right is shown. The head shown in profile has a pointed beard and a beard on the cheek. He is clothed with a coat that is waving backwards, the ends of which are knotted in front of the chest. While the left arm is stretched forward, he holds his phallus with his angled right hand. From his mouth comes the inscription 'Eurymedon eimi. Kybade Hekaste' ('I am Eurymedon. '), which runs diagonally downwards to the figure on side B. There stands a man in a long jacket-and-trousers costume, bent over, with his head turned frontally towards the observer, his hands raised on both sides of his head in a gesture of terror. A gorytos (quiver of arrows) with a bow dangles from his left arm. On his head he wears a so-called Phrygian cap, which in combination with his robe identifies him as an Oriental. Both figures stand on a circumferential clay-ground line; at the top the picture is completed by a narrow meandering band at the transition to the neck. The name 'Eurymedon' allows an interpretation of the scene: On the river of the same name in Asia Minor (near present-day Antalya), the Attic-Dellican League under the leadership of Athens and its strategist Kimon achieved a major victory in a double battle on land and water in 469 or 466 BC. The victory is portrayed brutally and humiliatingly on this jug, because in.
