EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning piece of Greek antiquity - a lekythos (lecyth) adorning a citharede. Painted by the renowned artist known as the painter of Berlin, this masterpiece dates back to 480-460 BC and was discovered in Gela, Palermo. It now resides in the Museo Archeologico Nazionale in Palermo, Italy. The image depicts an exquisite ceramic vase adorned with intricate details and vibrant colors. The lekythos is beautifully decorated with scenes from ancient Greek mythology, showcasing the artistic prowess of its creator.
