Tanım

Two wall fragments, almost joining, probably from an animal-frieze kotyle. Although discovered some distance apart, it is clear from the interior throwing lines, design, clay and glaze colors, and the style of incision that the pieces belong to one vase. Animal frieze: part of the head of a panther on the right, facing forward. His body, moving to the left, is preserved from haunch to shoulder. The head of a goat appears on the left, facing to right, preserved from the lower part of the horns to the beard.

The animals are bulky. The goat's head is large and thick, his wrinkled forehead massive. Two long incisions mark the forehead. A circle with triangular ends is used for the eye, and a series of vertical lines marks the beard. The panther has an ivy-shaped ear, an eye similar to that of the goat, and two heavy hooks for the cheek. His body is almost misshapen, with a heavy hump for the shoulder accentuated by the curve of the shoulder incision. The ribs are created by a series of seven nearly vertical incisions, varying in length and running from shoulder to haunch. Purple-red is added behind the ear of the goat, on the shoulder and belly, between the ribs of the panther, and possibly on the panther's forehead. Blob fillers lie between the goat and the panther. Incised rosettes appear above the back and beneath the belly of the panther. Glaze: medium brown to black, unevenly applied and glossy. Clay: hard and fairly smooth. Deep yellow-buff. Munsell no. 10 YR 7/3 (very pale brown).

Published: Schaeffer, Panthers 121--22 and fig. 5. For the goat, see Perachora II, pl. 100, no. 2472. A similar panther appears on an unpublished aryballos in Taranto NM, inv. no. 4850. See also CVA France 16, Rodin 1, pl. 5, no. 4 (inv. no. TC607), for an MC pyxis with a series of goats and panthers on the lid, a finer hand close to that of the Royal Library Painter
