Description

A tall two-handled amphora photographed upright from the front, with a short flared rim, a narrow neck, two vertical strap handles running from neck to shoulder, a rounded body tapering to a point, and a narrow stem foot. The surface is dark and smooth with pale worn patches, and faint marks low on the body may be remains of a motif. The print is mounted on a card with handwritten notes at the corners.
