Little Master Cup with a Sphinx and Nude Man in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, March 2018
Terracotta Little Master cup
Period: Archaic
Date: ca. 565–550 B.C.
Culture: Greek, Attic, black-figure,
Medium: Terracotta; black-figure
Dimensions: H. 6 5/8 in. (16.8 cm) diameter 9 7/8 in. (25.1 cm)
Classification: Vases
Credit Line: Rogers Fund, 1903
Accession Number: 03.24.31
03.24.31: exterior, obverse and reverse, sphinx standing over a nude man
The larger cup demonstrates the basic decorative format of this popular shape. Here, the inscriptions are meaningless strings of letters framing the figural composition, but on other examples, they accurately record the artist's name, label characters depicted, or offer greetings. Little Master cups can be dated more precisely than most Etruscan vases and so are important indicators of the date of this tomb.
