This pot is made in Italy in 440BC and is an Earthenware clay with red-figures painted on. I choose to include this image because for me this represents silhouettes but in a complete contrast to Victorian ideas of profile portraits. Due to the pot being painted black the outlines of the red figures are very clear and creates three very structured outlines. I like this image because even though it is being displayed on a big dark pot the imagery can still be seen and remain its own and each figure is strong and stands out in its own right. The style of work does not really fit in with any work I have created my self.
