Apulian Kylix – South Italian Greek Pottery Antiquities 4th Century BC
Located in London, GB
Apulian Geometric Kylix – South Italian Greek Pottery, 4th Century BC
A fine Apulian kylix from South Italy, dating to the 4th century BC, decorated in a bold geometric leaf/foliate motif typical of the Apulian workshops. This elegant drinking cup features a shallow bowl, graceful elongated handles with upturned ends, and a low foot—classic elements of the South Italian Greek kylix form.
The exterior displays a warm natural clay ground contrasted with strong black-painted decoration, while the interior is finished in a rich, lustrous black slip. The combination of geometric leaf stylisation and refined proportions places this kylix within the later phase of Apulian regional production. the style developed in Athens and later was widely adopted by Greek colonies in Southern Italy. Apulian vase...

Roman Marble Statuette of Jupiter
Located in London, GB
Roman Marble Fragment of jupiter
Circa 2nd-3rd Century A.D.
Measure: Height: 19.7 cm
This beautiful Roman fragmentary statuette depicts Jupiter, the king of the gods, here recognisable from his two chief attributes, the eagle with outstretched wings - according the Pseudo-Hyginus, singled out by Jupiter because ''it alone, men say, strives to fly straight into the rays of the rising sun'' - and the base of the scepter, which remains at the side of the left foot, an aspect likely borrowed from the statue of Zeus at Olympia, once one of the Seven Wonders of the World. Though much of the original piece has been lost, the subtle anatomical detail in the feet mark this out as a piece of exceptional quality, and the work of an artist of particular talent and patience - as Johann Winckelmann once said of the famous Belvedere Torso, ''if you contemplate this with a quiet eye [...] the god will at once become visible in this stone.''
This fragment once caught the eye of Henry Howard, 4th Earl of Carlisle (1694-1758), a Knight of the Garter and among the most prolific collectors of his day. The piece, acquired during his travels to Rome, was proudly displayed on an alcove of the Western Staircase of Castle Howard...
