A Greek bowl with black-figure painting, 1st half of the 5th century B.C. Bowl with a pedestal base and laterally attached, upward-curving handles as well as a clearly offset, slightly outward-facing rim. Black-figure painting in the style of the so-called Haimon group.

Acquired in April 2015 at Hermann Historica (auction 72, lot 4560). Previously South German private collection, acquired in the 1980s in the art trade. Condition: II - III
