Terracotta hydria: kalpis (water jar) Attributed to the Syleus Painter Period:Classical Date:ca. 480–470 B.C. Culture:Greek, Attic Medium:Terracotta; red-figure Dimensions:H. 14 3/16 in. (36 cm) diameter with handles 14 5/8 in. (37.2 cm) Classification:Vases Credit Line:Rogers Fund, 1911 Accession Number:11.212.7 The handles of this terracotta hydria, with a broad palmette where the handle joins the body, are influenced by their counterparts in bronze. On a terracotta work, the palmette is purely decorative. On a bronze hydria, the broad handle attachment, which may assume many forms, strengthens the points of contact to the body of the vase.

Terracotta hydria: kalpis (water jar) Period: Archaic Date: ca. 510 B.C. Culture: Greek, Attic Medium: Terracotta; black-figure Dimensions: H. 13 15/16 in. (35.4 cm) diameter of mouth 6 in. (15.2 cm) Classification: Vases Credit Line: Fletcher Fund, 1956 Accession Number: 56.171.31 Description: On the shoulder, chariot This vase was made at a time when the red-figure technique was becoming established and the relation between glazed and unglazed areas was a matter of considerable experimentation. The concept of a panel goes back to the early sixth century B.C., but the easy curves of the shape and the band between the handles indicate a different age.

Water Jar with Athena Defeating a Giant Greek, 350-325 BC Bronze Kalpis Inventory # 73.AC.15 The relief at the base of this vessel's handle depicts Athena defeating a giant. The monster, who has fallen at her feet, is attacked by a snake encircling his body. This dynamic scene is from the Gigantomachy, a great mythical battle between the Olympian gods and the giants, a race of monstrous creatures. The giants were ultimately conquered by the gods.
