29. Libation
Libation
Description
Pottery: White-ground lekythos. Sacrifice. On the right is an altar of rough outline, as if of hewn stone, from which flames arise. On the left stands a bearded, wreathed man (a priest ?) in an himation, leaning forward against a staff, and holding out in his right over the flames a phiale; in his left he holds a sprig of myrtle, probably for lustration (purification). Above hang a lock of hair and a wreath, probably votive. The vase has received a blow while the clay was soft, which has left a vertical indentation in the centre of the design. Early fine period. Drawing in black outline; hair and staff, black silhouette; dress, pink, with folds in brown. Eye in profile. Above, a strip, closed at each end, of maeander, with two white cross squares, on white. On shoulder, a pattern of five palmettes, black on red. --The British Museum, Walters, H B; Forsdyke, E J; Smith, C H, Catalogue of Vases in the British Museum, I-IV, London, BMP, 1893
