Kerch Style
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kerch Style is the name of a style of ancient Greek vase painting, principally seen on vases found in the Ancient Greek trading city of Panticapaeum (now called Kerch). The style is characterized by slender mannered figures and a polychromatism given to it by the use of white paint and gilding. It is the last major style of Attic red-figure period best represented by the Marsyas Painter whose works include the British Museum pelike representing Peleus taming Thetis and the Hermitage lebes gamikos.
