Descripción

Pottery style that developed on the island of Sicily and is found in other locations, including Campania. It dates from the early fifth century BCE through the fourth century BCE. The style varies from painter to painter, but is generally charaterized by the use of the Red-figure style, the addition of other colors, a preference for genre scenes over mythological subjects, and the inclusion of distinctive Sicilian details, for example, a wreath of ivy painted around the rim of kraters.
