Seven Vases from the Hope Collection1

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  23 December 2013

Extract

It is by publication that a private collection can best apologise for its existence, and for the following vases which passed from the Hope Collection to mine this apology is due:—

B.-F. Lekythos (Figs. 1, 2). Overbeck, Die Bildwerke zum Thebischen und Troischen Heldenkreis, Pl. XIX. 7, p. 455; Raoul Ruchette, Mon. In. xviii. 2; Hope Sale Catalogue, No. 19. Ht. 312 m. The body is wide in order to accommodate the subject, the neck short, the foot low and spreading. The back of the vase has been restored. Below the neck are rays, on the shoulder palmettes, above the design a pattern of dots between lines, below a line and a broad band of black edged with purple.

18 The drawing of this detail is incorrect in Tischbein's plate. He calls the scene an illustration of Odyesey, iv. 219, which is, of course, fanciful. In Fig. 5 the lines have been thickened through reproduction.
