Fragment from Red-Figure Oinochoe (Wine Jug) or Hydria (Water Jar): Woman Holding Box, c. 425-420 BC. Attributed to Shuvalov Painter (Greek, Attic, active c. 440-410 BC). Ceramic; overall: 0.4 cm (3/16 in.). The relatively large eyes and head of this seated woman are characteristic of figures painted by the Shuvalov Painter, a painter known to have painted numerous small vases during the mid- to late fifth century BC. Along with many mythological subjects, the Shuvalov Painter often showed women in domestic settings, as here; the box or chest she holds could be a bridal gift.
