Oil Jar with Paris and Helen

Terracotta
Red-figured lekythos attributed to the Painter of the Frankfort Acorn
Paris (prince of Troy) and Helen (queen of Sparta) gaze lovingly at each other on this oil jar. According to myth, Aphrodite was responsible for their meeting, which eventually led to the Trojan War. Here the goddess blesses the lovers' union as she flies above them in a chariot drawn by erotes, companions of Eros.
