Pottery Bichrome IV, Amphora-Crater (M.6.22)

Description

A two-handled vessel with a wide, rounded body, a short flared neck and a small ring foot, standing on a pale surface against a plain grey backdrop. The upper body carries a broad band of crossed diagonal lines above horizontal painted bands, and the surface is marked by cracks where the vessel has been broken and rejoined. One small handle sits on the left shoulder and a taller loop handle rises from the right shoulder to the rim.
