Title
Terracotta neck-amphora jar (neck)
Subject
Archaic Jar
Description
"Period: Archaic
Date: ca. 530 B.C
Dimensions: H. 157/8in (40.3cm)
Classification: Vases"
The two objects I chose was between the Archaic and Hellenistic period. I can by looking at the two objects the art style is different. The jar from the Archaic period the people is color in black and the background is brown. As for the bowl in the Hellenistic period its reverse where the people are left in brown and white while the background is cover in black. However, both objects show a great deal in heroic character or someone famous. From looking at the two objects it’s tells me that people during that time idolize strong and heroic people, because they displace warrior carrying weapons. I can see why artists choose to do that kind of drawing on the jar because, they were constantly in war with other region and people. Show the artist portrait that to inspired younger kids to be brave and defend their country and its people. I can only guess that the potteries were belonging to high class society because of the of the design and the detail that on it. From looking at all the art we were doing for class I want to learn more about the process the artist used to created those piece of art and does that transfer to the architecture of the monument they build.
