Red-Figure Stamnos (Mixing/Storage Vessel): Komos (Musicians and Revelers)
The Cleveland Museum of Art catalogs Red-Figure Stamnos (Mixing/Storage Vessel): Komos (Musicians and Revelers) as ceramic (c. 435–425 BCE).
The Athenian stamnos, a shape favored by the Etruscans, was made primarily for export.
A CLOSER LOOK
The museum identifies this ceramic as Ceramic and credits Kleophon Painter (Greek, Attic, active c. 440–410 BCE).
The museum's collection notes: Four lively figures move to the right across the front side of this stamnos, a vase used for storing and mixing wine. First comes a finely dressed woman playing the pipes, followed by three male figures, all nearly nude. The bearded one holds a drinking cup and reaches back, perhaps dancing, while the last in line concentrates on the music of his lyre.
