Abstract

"Among the many sorts of monuments of Etruscan art and life which remain to us, Archaic pottery has perhaps received the least attention. Although this ware is considered a lowly step-sister of the contemporary Greek pottery, growing interest is fostering a new awareness of early Etruscan wares for themselves. A wheel-made jar of fine red impasto ware in the Museum of Art and Archaeology may well be a link which can help us to understand the development of thoroughly Etruscan pottery styles. This jar can be ascribed to a workshop which has been identified by Friedrich Hiller, or to one closely related. Hiller defined a shop which produced incised bucchero ware; the piece discussed here would link his shop with parallel work in painted impasto."--First paragraph.
