Artist
Bryn Mawr Painter Greek (active ca. 500 BCE - ca. 480 BCE)
Title
Attic Red-Figure Plate
Description
Red-figured plate; bearded symposiast playing kottabos (reclining with pillow at his back, holding up kylix and wreath, skin on wall); black paint on back; one wide and one narrow band; style of Duris. This type of object is sometimes referred to as a pinax (pl. pinakes). "Note that the Bryn Mawr Painter did not initially intend to decorate this plate with a kottabos player, since he originally sketched the komast's right forearm more horizontally." The inscription on the plate "HO PAIS KALOS" reads "the boy is beautiful," a common phrase on late archaec/early classical sympotic pottery, sometimes naming individuals.
