Apulian Red-Figure Plate (Tondo (old photography))

Shallow bowl with a raised flat rim, and a foot in two degrees on a thick short stem.
Tondo: head of a woman in profile to left. She wears a hair covering (kekryphalos) patterned with black and white stripes, from the back of which emerges a bunch of hair tied with a wavy white ribbon. She also wears a large radiate stephane above the brow, a circular earring, and a double-strand necklace. To the left is a phiale in side view, and to right, a mirror.

The tondo is bordered by a wreath of slender white leaves to right, which curve slightly outward; below this, a wave pattern between two reserved bands. Around the rim: thick black strokes. The foot has a very narrow reserved line at the bottom edge. On the underside: a central reserved disk, around which are two black stripes bordering a broad reserved band.

After Jentoft-Nilsen, M. R. and Trendall, A.D., CVA Malibu 3 (1990).
