This print showcases a Chalcidian neck amphora with a naked rider, dating back to the 6th century BC. Crafted by Greek artisans, this terracotta masterpiece measures 32.6x20.1 cm and is currently housed in the prestigious J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles, USA. The Chalcidian pottery style originated from Greek immigrants who settled in Rhegion, South Italy. This particular vessel features intricate black-figure painting techniques that were prevalent during classical antiquity. The skilled artist has depicted an exquisite scene of a nude horse rider known as Phineus. The attention to detail is remarkable as every stroke brings life to the artwork.
