EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of the Knob-Handled Patera, a dish dating back to 330-320 BCE. Created by the talented Baltimore Painter, this ancient artifact takes us on a journey through time to Ancient Greece and its rich mythological heritage. The circular ceramic dish is adorned with intricate decorative elements that depict scenes from Greek mythology. Amongst them, we can spot figures such as Demeter, Hermes, and Dis Pater, each representing different aspects of ancient Greek culture and belief systems. The attention to detail in these delicate designs is truly remarkable. One cannot help but be drawn to the central figure depicted on this patera - a charioteer standing proudly atop his chariot pulled by majestic horses. This symbolizes power and strength while also paying homage to the importance of horses in ancient Mediterranean cultures. The handles of this crockery piece are uniquely shaped like knobs, adding an artistic touch that sets it apart from other artifacts of its time. Its vibrant colors bring life to every corner of the dish, making it a true marvel for art enthusiasts and history buffs alike. Displayed at the Art Institute Chicago's exhibition on Arts of the Ancient Mediterranean and Byzantium, this photograph preserves not only an important historical artifact but also our connection with ancient civilizations that have shaped our world today.
