Abstract

O estudo de coleções privadas subordinadas ao tema da arte grega tem vindo a ganhar força em território português, proliferando as publicações que dão conta do significativo interesse que este tipo de peças suscita junto de colecionadores. Seguindo esta tendência, apresentamos um novo conjunto de fragmentos cerâmicos de origem grega, parte integrante do acervo de um colecionador privado. Este pequeno acervo é constituído de fragmentos pertencentes a cinco vasos de produção ática, correspondendo a três exemplares de figuras negras, um dos quais de excecional qualidade, e dois exemplares de verniz negro. Neste artigo, apresentamos um breve enquadramento destas peças, seguido de um catálogo onde se pretende dar a conhecer os exemplares estudados, através de uma breve descrição dos motivos decorativos e, sempre que possível, sugerindo uma atribuição para a sua forma e pintor. O estudo deste pequeno conjunto permitiu, entre outros aspetos, acrescentar um novo exemplar ao reduzido leque de peças adjudicadas ao Grupo de pintores de Golvol e identificar mais um testemunho da expressiva obra do Grupo de pintores CHC.

Highlights

  • This small collection consists of fragments belonging to five Attic vases, corresponding to three black-figure pieces, of which one is exceptional in quality, and two blackglazed vases. We briefly frame these pieces, followed by a catalogue intended to describe their decorative motifs and, whenever possible, suggest an attribution for their form and painter. The study of this small set has brought a new entry to the reduced range of pieces attributed to the Golvol Group and allowed the identification of another example of the expressive work of the CHC Group

  • The fragments we present here bear witness to the recognition of the timeless importance of Greek vases, an acknowledgement that stemmed from the very emergence of this particular type of ceramic production, and which echoes through time to the present day

  • The classification of the fragment as a volute krater is confirmed by its authorship as attributed to the Golvol Group, whose work is restricted exclusively to vases of this form5
