A biconical cinerary urn whose body is engraved with a geome - Lot 188
A biconical cinerary urn whose body is engraved with a geometric pattern of meanders and zigzags. Clay, black in pasto, with visible chips and cracks. The vase was overpainted in the 19th century in the classical style. This constitutes an interesting example of the 19th-century taste for antiquity. Etruscan art, Villanovan period, 8th century B.C. Two 19th-century labels on the neck and base. Height: 37.5 cm The overpainted decoration appears to be removable.
