Scope and Content |
Card base with six black and white photographs. The number 8 is pasted in the lower and upper left corners, and three of the images are labelled with the pasted letters a-c. Beneath 1936/01/01/04/01, 02, and 04, and to the right of 1936/01/01/04/03 are later annotations in biro giving bibliographic references. The original description in the catalogue reads: "8a Fisherman, naively portrayed in black and red on buff; one of a procession: contrast the vigorous naturalism of his two fishes and great eye, with the childish rendering of head and limbs. 8b Bronze statuette, recalling the earlier marble figures in Early Cycladic graves, but influenced by Cretan bronzes, and perhaps imported. 8c Impressions of basketry, on which potters set out clay vessels to dry; a glimpse of another domestic art, otherwise vanished. Other pots were set out on leaves of trees which can be recognised; compare original examples Case A 5, 24." |
