Terracotta Bell-Krater Attributed to Polion in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, April 2011
Terracotta bell-krater (bowl for mixing wine and water)
Attributed to Polion
Period: Classical
Date: ca. 420 B.C.
Culture: Greek, Attic
Medium: Terracotta; red-figure
Dimensions: H. 11 5/16 in. (28.7 cm)
Classification: Vases
Credit Line: Fletcher Fund, 1925
Accession Number: 25.78.66
Description:
Obverse, chorus of satyrs
Reverse, youths
The inscription singers at the Panathenaia offers some explanation of the subject on the obverse. Three Papposilenoi—old satyrs—hold lyres and move toward a man with a pair of flutes. These are costumed performers who played some part in the festival that took place annually in honor of Athena, the patron goddess of Athens.
