terracotta vase

Terracotta vase. Culture: Greek, Sicilian, Centuripe. Dimensions: H. 15 1/2 in. (39.4 cm). Date: 3rd-2nd century B.C.. Four women A fundamental feature of Greek ceramics and their offshoots is that they could be used. By contrast, this vase, with its lid fixed onto the body, serves a purely symbolic function. It belongs to a class of pieces associated with the site of Centuripe in Sicily. They are characterized by elaborate and delicate applied decoration and by refined polychromy executed after firing. The scene shows a bride surrounded by attendants. The vase was made for the tomb.
