Terracotta hydria: kalpis (water jar) ca. 430-420 B.C. Attributed to the Washing Painter Bride with attendants and ErosThe small Eros hovering in front of the seated woman indicates that she is a bride. She is surrounded by paraphernalia appropriate to her status and situation. Before her, an attendant holds a large fan. Behind her, another extends a plemochoe, a container for perfumed oil. This figure is remarkable for her position: she rests one foot on the mouth of the hydria standing on the floor and holds an arm akimbo. One wonders whether the woman would assume the same position if she were in front of her mistress rather than behind her.. Terracotta hydria: kalpis (water jar). Greek, Attic. ca. 430-420 B.C..

Culture: British. Designer: Christopher Dresser (British, Glasgow, Scotland 1834-1904 Mulhouse). Dimensions: Overall (confirmed): 9 3/16 × 8 3/8 × 8 3/8 in. (23.3 × 21.3 × 21.3 cm). Manufactory: Linthorpe Pottery Works (British, 1879-1889). Date: ca. 1880.The bold form and rich glaze of this jug are characteristic of Christopher Dresser's designs at Linthorpe Pottery Works, where he served as director from 1879 to 1882. The form is probably based on Minoan or Cycladic pottery, as were many of Dresser's designs for Linthorpe. However, Asian, Mexican, Peruvian, and Fijian pottery, as well as prehistoric artifacts found in Yorkshire were also sources of inspiration, indicating Dresser's penchant for adapting motifs from diverse cultures. At Linthrope, vessels were potted by hand and then finished in a wood mold. The richly mottled glaze emulates Japanese Raku teawares.
