Ca. 450 BC. A Greek red figure Lekythos of slender form with rounded shoulders tapering to a narrow foot, the vessel is surmounted by a flared funnel mouth and complemented by a single vertical handle. Executed in the red-figure technique on a lustrous black-glazed ground, the primary register features a dynamic scene of two female figures in profile, one presenting a casket and mirror to a winged Nike, who approaches with graceful stride, her form delicately articulated with flowing drapery and detailed wings. The reverse displays a standing female figure holding a mirror, the entire composition bordered above and below by continuous meander friezes. The fine draftsmanship and spatial economy suggest attribution to a workshop of the so-called "School of the Providence Painter," active in mid-5th century B.C. Athens. The use of delicate contour lines and balanced proportions exemplifies the high classical style at its zenith.For similar see: Christie's, Live Auction 9383, Antiquities, Lot. 386.Size: 320mm x 110mm; Weight: 725gProvenance: Private UK collection, acquired on the Swiss art market; Ex.
