Clazomenic vase painting
The clazomenic vase painting was a regional style of Greek vase painting and belonged to the Eastern Greek vase painting .
In Klazomenai people painted around the middle of the 6th century BC. BC (around 550 to 530 BC) mainly amphorae and hydria as well as deep bowls with flat, angular-looking figures. The vessels are not very elegant. We are happy to depict women or animals. The leading workshops were those of the Tübingen painter , the Petrie painter and the Urla group . Most of the vases were made in Naukratis and in 525 BC. Found abandoned Tell Defenneh . The origin was initially unclear, Robert Zahn recognized the origin by comparing it with the pictures on so-called clazomenic sarcophagi . It was not uncommon for ceramics to be decorated with plastic women's masks. Mythological scenes are rarely shown; scale ornaments, rows of white dots and stiff-looking dance of women are popular. The depiction of a herald before a king and queen was singular and unusual. In general, men were characterized by enormous spade beards. As early as 600 and up to around 520 BC. The rosette bowls , successors to the Eastern Greek bird bowls , were probably made in Klazomenai .
