| Scope and Content | A watercolour illustration of a vase in red-brown with a white wave pattern. The handles are a paler colour, which may indicate these were not parts of the original fragments found but added to complete the vase before painting or imagined by the artist. The original description in the catalogue reads: "Polychrome designs on vases of 'Kamáres' style (Middle Minoan: cf. 51, 52) imported from Crete to Melos about 1800 B.C.: white enhanced with other colours, on black slip." |
