ancient ships
1st Register: Theseus and the eleven Athenian youths. The long ship is, probably, a triakonter landing on the beach stern-first. The ship carries back in Athens eleven youths from Crete rescued by Theseus from being killed by the Minotaurus. The sternpost of the ship is in the shape of two swan’s heads; the prow is a boar’s head. The mast has been lowered and the crew is standing to debark; they talk excitedly among themselves, one throws his hands in the air in praise, another has jumped overboard and swims to the shore; one, labeled Phaidimos, has debarked and joins the Athenian youths and maidens on land. The helmsman, with two steering oars, turns around to face land and raises his arm in excitement. 2nd Register: The battle between Lapiths and Centaurs. In he center of the frieze, three centaurs, Hylaios, Agrios and Hasbolos, are pounding Kaineus into the ground, as this was the only way the invulnerable Lapith could be overcome.

Greek pottery
The François Vase, a milestone in the development of Greek pottery, is a large volute black-figured krater. Kleitias and Ergotimos signed this masterwork, respectively, as painter and as potter. More than 200 figures are depicted on the krater surface; they are arranged inside five registers and summarize some of the most important themes of the Greek Mythology. Almost all of the figures are identified by inscriptions allowing an easy reading of the painted scenes. The 1st uppermost frieze depicts: side A) the myth of Meleager and the Calydonian boar hunt; side B) the return from Crete of the eleven Athenian youths rescued by Theseus. The 2nd frieze shows: side A, Patroclus’ funerary games; side B, the battle of Lapiths and centaurs. The 3rd frieze, perhaps the most important one, covers both the sides A) and B), and describes the procession of the gods to the wedding of Peleus and Thetis. The 4th frieze depicts: side A) Achilles’ ambush on Troilus outside the gates of Troy; side B) Hephaestus’ return to the Olympus. The 5th frieze is decorated with mythical creatures and lions and panthers attacking bull, deer and boar. On the foot of the vessel, on both sides, there is a depiction of the battle between the Pygmies and the cranes. The fields on the inner sides of the handles above the rim of the pot feature a Gorgon in motion; outside the so-called Mistress of Animals above a vignette showing Ajax carrying the dead Achilles. Unfortunately the lighting system around the krater is weak and not homogeneously distributed; the light gradient on its surface is really sharp and doesn’t allow to take good pictures. I had to use very high ISO values and the noise is really disturbing … Attic black-figured volute krater Potter Ergotimos Painter Kleitias About 570-560 BC From Chiusi, Siena Florence, Museo Archeologico Etrusco Firenze
