Description

It is a kantharos black figure painted with Greek Olympian Gods performanes .A kantharos is an ancient Greek drinking cup with high-swung handles extending above the rim. Often associated with Dionysus, it was used for wine and rituals, symbolizing abundance and divine connection. Black-figure pottery is an ancient Greek ceramic style where figures are painted in black slip on a red clay background. Details were incised into the figures before firing, allowing fine lines to show through the black. Popular between the 7th and 5th centuries BCE, it often depicted mythological scenes and daily life. First side: God Poseidon is seated on a throne with a trident held in one hand and a cup in the other. He is attended by the winged goddess Iris (or perhaps Hebe) who serves nectar from an oinochoe jug. Second side: We can see God Zeus, king of the Greek gods, ruled Mount Olympus. God of sky and thunder, he wielded a lightning bolt, symbolizing power, justice, and authority over gods and mortals alike.
