"Greek no. 4. Ornaments from Greek and Etruscan vases" is a plate from a larger work by Owen Jones (1809-1874) dedicated to the study of ancient decorative patterns. The plate features a collection of intricate designs that were originally found on Greek and Etruscan vases. The patterns showcase a variety of motifs, including geometric shapes, floral patterns, and figurative elements, all rendered in a striking palette of black, red, and yellow. Jones's work was influential in the revival of interest in classical ornament in the 19th century, and this plate exemplifies the meticulous documentation and artistic appreciation that characterized his approach to the study of ancient art.
