Provenance
US California private collection. Purchased 1980
A pair of Prochoi (spouted jugs) with elongated
handles and long spouts in Gnathian style. Both examples show detailed painting
of vine motifs under a motif with a Lady of Fashion's bust surrounded by more
vine motifs. Very beautiful painting on both examples.
