Detail of a Black Figure Terracotta Neck Pelike in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, July 2011
Terracotta neck-pelike (wine jar)
Period: Archaic
Date: ca. 500 B.C.
Culture: Greek, Attic
Medium: Terracotta; black-figure
Dimensions: Overall: 10 1/2 x 6in. (26.7 x 15.3cm) diameter 5 11/16in. (14.5cm)
Classification: Vases
Credit Line: Rogers Fund, 1907
Accession Number: 07.286.72
Label: Musical contests: obverse, kithara player; reverse, youth singing to double flute
The platforms on which the performers stand indicate that they are participating in musical competitions. The figure on the obverse holds a kithara, the type of lyre used for performances. His pose and the wreath he wears suggest that he may already have won. The figures on the reverse are entirely absorbed, the flute player within himself, the boy projecting toward his audience.
