Inspired by archaeological finds, this carefully made piece presents Odysseus, the clever Greek hero, frequently received guidance from Athena, the goddess of wisdom and war. This ceramic amphora (two-handled storage/transport jar) is executed in the black‑figure tradition, echoing the aesthetics and storytelling of ancient Greek art. Black-figure pottery is an ancient Greek ceramic style where figures are painted in black slip on a red clay background. Details were incised into the figures before firing, allowing fine lines to show through the black. Popular between the 7th and 5th centuries BCE, it often depicted mythological scenes and daily life

Reverse side: It depicts Sisyphus, the cunning king punished by the gods, is doomed to eternally push a boulder uphill, only to have it roll back, embodying the endless cycle of futile struggle.
