alb3621676 Marble calyx-krater with reliefs of maidens and dancing maenads. Culture: Roman. Dimensions: H. 31 3/4 in. (80.7 cm). Date: 1st century A.D..The peristyle courtyards and gardens of the villas belonging to wealthy Romans were filled with fountains, sculpture, and monumental ornaments such as this vase. Many of these decorative works were eclectic combinations of shapes and motifs drawn from the long, rich tradition of Greek art that had been produced some five hundred years earlier in the sixth and fifth centuries B.C. The six female figures that surround this vase are copies and adaptations taken from famous classical reliefs. On one side, two modestly wrapped maidens approach a girl playing a double flute, while on the other side, three maenads, followers of Dionysos, dance in abandon to the music of wooden clappers. Gnarled trees above the handles evoke an outdoor setting. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

Date: 1st half of 5th century B.C..Attic vases of the fifth century B.C. include unusual shapes such as shells, lobster claws, or astragals (knucklebones). The foot belongs in the same category. It may have served as a novelty in the symposium (drinking party). Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

Date: 1927.Klee gridded this small canvas in such a way that the design looks like slightly irregular graph paper or a pattern of parquetry boards. Due to a variation in the same motif--horizontally striped, light blue squares on the outside versus ivory-shaded ones with diagonal and crisscross lines toward the center--there emerges a subtly patterned image that anticipates Minimalist painting by about forty years. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

Many of the shapes were made for the symposium, and their decoration depicts varied aspects of the gatherings. This amphora shows two groups of men, wreathed with vine leaves and because they stand firmly, probably at the beginning of the evening. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

alb3606006 Terracotta column-krater (bowl for mixing wine and water). Culture: Greek, Attic. Dimensions: Overall: 22 3/16 x 27 1/4 in. (56.4 x 69.3 cm); diameter 23 1/16 in. (58.6 cm). Date: ca. 550 B.C..Obverse, Hephaistos on mule among satyrs and maenadsReverse, Dionysos among satyrs and maenadsThe symposium, conventionally interpreted as a drinking party, was a well-established feature of Greek--particularly Athenian-- society. For over a century, representations on vases document that wine, women, and song were central ingredients. Even more worthy of emphasis, however, is the importance of the symposium as an institution that permitted citizens to gather, to transact business, and--as Plato's dialogue makes clear--to engage in serious discussion. An essential piece of equipment for the symposium was the vase in which the wine was diluted with water and from which it was served.In black-figure vase-painting before the last quarter of the sixth century B.C., the decoration of large, elaborate kraters tended to be mythological. (On red-figure vases, the symposium itself was often depicted.) This krater is of exceptional significance because it is one of the first on which wine, women, and song are presented, albeit in a mythological guise.The subject, which encompasses both sides of the vase, is the return of Hephaistos to Mount Olympos, the home of the gods. Hephaistos, the divine smith, was the son of Hera and Zeus. Because he was born lame, his mother cast him out of Olympos. In revenge, Hephaistos fashioned a throne that held Hera fast when she sat on it. only Hephaistos could release her. Therefore, he was given wine and escorted to Olympos by Dionysos, the god of wine, accompanied by his male and female followers, the satyrs and maenads.

alb3656641 Terracotta kylix (drinking cup). Culture: Greek, Attic. Dimensions: H. 3 5/8 in. (9.2 cm)diameter 7 1/4 in. (18.4 cm). Date: ca. 500 B.C..Interior, foreigner with his dogExterior, obverse, symposium (drinking party); reverse, komos (revel)In technique and execution, this cup represents the kind of enterprising and accomplished artist who flourished in Athens during the late sixth and early fifth centuries B.C. The technique is red-figure enhanced by a coral-red slip, a short-lived experiment. The decoration is exceptional for the trenchant observation that underlies the spirited rendering. The man on the interior is often identified as Levantine. His physiognomy would have been as outlandish to an Athenian as the appearance of his dog.

alb3649810 Eugène Pelletan. Artist: Nadar (French, Paris 1820-1910 Paris). Dimensions: 23.5 x 17.6 cm (9 1/4 x 6 15/16 in.). Date: 1855-59.No portraitist in any medium better rendered the spirit and intellect of his subjects through their physiognomies than Nadar did in his photographs of the leading figures of the Second Empire. This fine example, an unretouched print in pristine condition, was the first important portrait by him to be acquired by the Metropolitan. The glaring eyes, tousled hair, and deliberate pose of Pierre-Clément-Eugène Pelletan (1813-1884) vividly suggest the fiery, passionate prose of his essays on art, philosophy, history, social issues, the nature of progress, and liberty.A few years before he took this photograph, Nadar wrote a thumbnail biography of the combative man it lionizes: "The number one French critic . who is at the same time a poet, a man of style, and a man with heart. I have read critical articles by M. Pelletan . that moved me as much as a passage from Sand and interested me as much as a novel by Balzac." . Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.
