Red-figure pottery, developed in Athens around 530 BCE, reversed black-figure technique: figures appeared red against a black background. It allowed greater detail, realism, and expression in Greek vase painting.
Technique:Handmade in Greece with traditional wheel-throwing, kiln-firing, and hand-painting techniques, this vessel reflects the timeless authenticity of ancient artistry.
First side: Achilles tends Patroclus, his closest companion and role model, celebrated in the Iliad. Achilles, son of a nymph and mortal, was nearly invulnerable except his heel.
Second side: Zeus with Ganymede, the beautiful Trojan youth. While herding, he was taken by Zeus, who desired him as lover, symbolizing divine favor and immortal beauty.
