- Tanım
Restored from many fragments; complete except for small pieces of the rim and body. Two panthers, walking on a ground line are confronted at either side of a stylized lotus flower. Their heads face front. The tail of each curls up and "disappears" behind the horizontal band above the animals, but reappears as it curls over the back. Blobs of paint, placed around the panthers, serve as filling ornament. The trefoil mouth is painted black, as is the border of Zs and the narrow horizontal band below, and the lower body and foot. A streaky, weak black glaze has been used, with reddish-brown overpaint on the panthers’ necks, ribs, and one haunch.
A “straggler, continuing the tradition of the Early Olpe Group, but later and not belonging to it” (Beazley in ABV 15).
