This note examines an Attic red-figure cup discovered at the ‘monumental complex’ of the Etruscan city of Tarquinia. Despite its fragmented state, the cup's decorative scheme has been successfully reconstructed and attributed to an artisan from the workshop of the Meleager Painter—one of the most prolific ceramic ateliers in Athens at the start of the 4th century BC. This identification sheds new light on the distribution and trade of Attic red-figure pottery along the Tyrrhenian coast in the early 4th century BC, particularly in Tarquinia, where products from the Meleager Painter's workshop had not been previously documented.

Abstract
This note examines an Attic red-figure cup discovered at the ‘monumental complex’ of the Etruscan city of Tarquinia. Despite its fragmented state, the cup's decorative scheme has been successfully reconstructed and attributed to an artisan from the workshop of the Meleager Painter—one of the most prolific ceramic ateliers in Athens at the start of the 4th century BC. This identification sheds new light on the distribution and trade of Attic red-figure pottery along the Tyrrhenian coast in the early 4th century BC, particularly in Tarquinia, where products from the Meleager Painter's workshop had not been previously documented.File in questo prodotto:
