Description

To the untrained eye, classical Greek vases may exhibit a certain sameness. However, a close examination of a selection of vases of just one shape may reveal the diversity in both the potter’s work and the drawing by different vase painters. The stamnos vase is a particularly good shape for this purpose, since it is used both as a wine container for drinking parties and as a cinerary urn.
