Oinochoe 500 BC

This Attic black-figure oinochoe (wine jug) from 500 BC, attributed to the Class of the Red-Bodied Oinochoai III, showcases two figures in silhouette on an orange-red clay ground. The figures, adorned with black-figure painting, are depicted engaging in a lively scene. The vase's elegant form and the intricate detail of the figures exemplify the artistry of ancient Greek pottery. It is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
