These five fragments of a terracotta kylix (drinking cup) were created by the Athenian potter Makron in 530 BC. They depict figures in black-figure style, a technique common in ancient Greek pottery, where the figures are painted in black silhouette against a red background. The fragments are currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
