Description |
Français : Selon les indications données par le musée le cratère aurait été réalisé vers 530 avant J.-C., dans un atelier grec installé dans la région de Sybaris, au sud de l'Italie. C'est un objet exceptionnel de par sa taille et sa facture. Il est constitué de l'assemblage de plusieurs pièces séparées, l'ensemble pèse 208,6 kg. Le vase est fait d'une seule pièce en feuille de bronze martelée et pèse environ 60 kg. Son fond est arrondi, son diamètre maximal est de 1,27 m. et sa capacité est de 1100 litres; l'épaisseur moyenne de la paroi varie entre 1 et 1,3 mm, et l'on n'arrive pas à déceler de soudure. Le pied est une pièce coulée d'un diamètre à la base de 74 cm et pèse 20,2 kg. Il est décoré de motifs classiques de végétaux stylisés. Les anses, fonte de bronze d'un poids de 46 kg chacune. En forme de volutes d'une hauteur de 55 cm, elles sont richement décorées de gorgones grimaçantes et tirant la langue. La frise des hoplites corinthiens décore le tour du col. Huit quadriges conduit par un aurige de plus petite taille, suivant la règle d' isocéphalie nécessitée par la composition, sont suivit chacun par un hoplite à pieds en armes. Cette frise est un chef-d'œuvre du bas-relief grec. Le couvercle, feuille de bronze martelée de 13,8 kg, couvrait l'ouverture du cratère, et en son centre, s'élève une statuette en bronze de 19 cm de haut, représentant une femme. C'est peut-être la que l'on aurait un indice significatif de la scène : la statuette féminine qui est placée sur le couvercle-passoire du cratère est vêtue d’un chiton (tunique à manches) et d’un himation (manteau) dont un pan lui couvre les cheveux. Elle tenait à l’origine une phiale (coupe) et une œnochoé (vase à verser). Elle était donc représentée en train de faire une libation, une offrande liquide, pratique souvent associée dans l’iconographie grecque au départ du guerrier. Le décor du cratère de Vix était donc peut-être destiné à exalter le courage des hoplites qui partaient au combat pour défendre la cité.
English: Exceptional for its size and its craftsmanship, the Vix Krater is made of several pieces, and weighs 208.6 kg in total. The vase is made of a single sheet of beaten bronze and weighs around 60 kg. The base is rounded, with a maximum diameter of 1.27 m. It has a capacity of 1100 litres. The thickness of the sides varies between 1 and 1.3 mm, and there is no sign of welding. The foot is cast, and has a diameter of 74 cm and weighs 20.2 kg. It is decorated with classical motifs and stylised vegetation. The handles are cast in bronze and weigh around 46 kg. The volutes (the spiral shapes on the top of the handles) are 55 cm high, and are richly decorated with grimacing gorgons. The neck of the vessel is decorated with images of soldiers in relief. Eight chariots driven by charioteers are each followed by an armed hoplite on foot. The lid, made of a sheet of beaten bronze weighing 13.8 kg, has an 18 cm-high statuette of a woman in the center.
The museum currently say made c. 530 BC [1] |
