This book was released on 2017-10-13 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Catalogue of the Greek Vases in the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge The most valuable part of Col. Leake's collection consisted of black-figured amphorae and hydriae, mostly Attic, and of Attic cylices, both black-figured and red-figured, including those signed by Hischylus and Saconides and by Cachrylion. This part of the collection was evidently bought in Italy, and the provenance in most cases is given as Vulci. To these must be added a collection of lecythi purchased in Athens, large in numbers, but, for the most part, of very little interest or value. All of the vases bought in Italy had sufl'ered severely at the hands of the antiquity-dealer, and had been over-painted until the original surface of the vase was hardly anywhere visible. The result of this process was to give an impression to any student of vases that the collection was in much worse condition, and of far less value and interest, than has proved to be the case. Almost all the vases have now been skilfully cleaned by Mr H. Sharp, of the British Museum. The beauty of their original surface is restored; and it has been found that the opaque coat of paint which in many cases covered the whole vase was, in most cases, not required to hide considerable gaps in the design, but merely served to conceal unimportant frac tures, or to please an inexplicable taste. Unfortunately the restorer was not content with laying on a coat of paint, which could be removed, but also followed the most reprehensible custom of scrap ing out a groove along all lines of fracture, deep enough to hold a filling of new material; these grooves are everywhere only too conspicuous, and have, in many cases, carried away portions of the design.

Book Synopsis Greek Vases in New Contexts by : Vinnie Nørskov
Download or read book Greek Vases in New Contexts written by Vinnie Nørskov and published by Aarhus Universitetsforlag. This book was released on 2002 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Greek vases have been among antiquity's most widely collected artefacts since the 18th century. This volume examines trends in the collection and trade of Greek vases in the years since World War II. Norskov combines a detailed historical narrative with case studies of eight major museum collections, plus an analysis of auction and dealer documents listing 18,000 Greek vases, to provide a comprehensive overview of the subject. The volume highlights a major scholarly shift in the 1960s which broadened the gap between museum collections, which adopted the new contextual approach, and the collections of individuals who selected items for their aesthetic value. The growing curatorial emphasis on context also lent weight to emerging ethical concerns as the relation between unprovenanced objects and the destruction of archaeological sites became an international issue.

This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue of the Greek and Etruscan Vases and of the Greek and Roman Lamps: In the Nicholson Museum, University of Sydney The Collection were presented to the University of Sydney by Sir Charles Nicholson, formerly Chancellor of the University. They were found, probably, in different parts of Italy, but the exact locality has been noted only in a few instances. In earlier days vases such as we have here were known as Etruscan vases, because Etruria was the first country where they were found in great abundance. Their true name is Greek Vases, and only a very few can be strictly called Etruscan. In our collection the Etruscan vases proper are 45 and 46, and possibly some of the early black incised and the late black stamped ware may have been made by Etruscan potters. Greek vases have been found, generally, in tombs, and one class in particular, the white Athenian Lehythoi were produced solely for funeral purposes. But painted clay vases were used constantly in ordinary Greek life, as, indeed, we can see from the shapes adapted to their different purposes the skyphos, the kylixy and the cantharos, for drinking cups; the aryballos, for holding oil or perfume; the crater, or mixing bowl the lekyihos, for pouring oil; the otnochoe, for wine and so on. The examination of Greek decorated pottery shows a successive development through many stages. Between the 7th and 3rd centuries, B. C., when the art of vase painting ceased, the history can be clearly traced: and, though the dates cannot be fixed more than approximately, from the fact that the different styles of colour and design overlap each other, there is no difference of opinion among authorities as to the period within a few years to which any vase or class of vases belongs.
