  1. Cycladic vase painting

    no footnotes date October 2011 Cycladic vase painting was a regional style of Greek vase painting , produced in the Cyclades Cycladic islands . Especially in its early and middle phases, the Geometric vase painting of the Cyclades was strongly influenced by Attic vase painting . In the late Geometric phase, there is evidence for workshops on Naxos , Thera , Paros and Melos that had developed their own stylistic forms in terms of material, vase shapes, and ornamental decoration. This was followed by a considerable duration of the Subgeometric style , before orientalising style Orientalising vase painting became dominant. Once that had happened, floral and other ornaments became very popular. There was experimentation with polychrome effects adding red and white paint , and to a more limited extent with figural motifs animals and humans . Influences came from Attica and East Greek vase painting East Greece , rather than from the actual centre of the orientalising style, Corinthian vase painting Corinth . In the early 7th century BC, several highly innovative groups of potters painters were active in the Cyclades. These were the Ad Group the Linear Island Group and the Heraldic Group . It is not clear where their production centre or centres were located, scholarly discussion revolves around Paros, Naxos and some smaller islands. Later, the so called Melian Style became important the name is misleading as it actually originated from Paros. This style shows a strong Corinthian influence and is characterised by daring ornamental and figural compositions covering the whole vase body. The workshop is best known for its broad and tall grave amphora e, painted with polychrome Greek mythology mythological scenes. Later, Andros produced alabastron alabastra in the black figure vase painting black figure technique , in relatively small quantities. Bibliography Thomas Mannack Griechische Vasenmalerei.
