It is time for the Museum to look back at a decade of living with this rich collection, which has been the source not only for scholarly publications and new insights into an ancient world but also for countless educational opportunities and unknown hours of musing and wonder for the thousands of visitors who have seen these vases. It is also a time to look forward and anticipate the complete publication of the collection in the fascicules of the Corpus Vasorum Antiquorum. This is the fourth fascicule dedicated to the Bareiss collection and the first of several on the Attic red-figured vases, the last group of the collection to be published. As with the previous publications of Bareiss vases, this fascicule includes only vases from that collection and more recent acquisitions that join or belong to them, such as the fragments donated to the Museum in 1991 that join the fragmentary kalpis with a scene of Nereids bringing arms to Achilles (no. 33, 86.AE.235). Unlike previous fascicules this one was begun by the author while he was an intern in the Antiquities Department in 1991 and 1992. The Department is grateful to him for his persistence over the past years and his dedication to this project, and to Mary B. Moore, Dietrich von Bothmer, J. Michael Padgett, and Andrew J. Clark for their generous assistance and oversight. Marion True vii This page intentionally left blank INTRODUCTION This fascicule comprises the complete and fragmentary red-figured and white- ground closed vessels from the collection of Molly and Walter Bareiss: amphorae, a loutrophoros, pelikai, a stamnos, a psykter, hydriai, oinochoai, lekythoi, a lid, and some fragments of undetermined shape. The majority of vases and fragments dates from the first three quarters of the fifth century B.C. The Geras, Eucharides, and Richmond Painters are especially well represented, and the Berlin and Trip- tolemos Painters make strong showings as well. The format for entries follows the guidelines for the U.S.A. CVAs and the precedents set in previous Getty fascicules of Attic ware. Attributions are credit­ ed in brackets; my own are unmarked. Profiles, with scales, are given for all com­ plete or nearly complete vases and for some fragments, and all graffiti are shown at a scale of 1:1. In the section DIMENSIONS AND CONDITION, I have followed the lead of pre­ vious Getty fascicules in giving the approximate capacity for complete vases. Most volumes were measured with short-grain rice, but for some of the smaller lekythoi it was necessary to use fine sand; this disparity may have caused some unevenness in values. The results are given both in liters and in the estimated an­ cient equivalent, expressed in choes, kotylai, or kyathoi: 1 chous (3.283 1) = 12 kotylai (1 kotyle = 0.2736 1) = 72 kyathoi (1 kyathos = 0.0456 1). As in previous fascicules, these equivalents are based on those calculated by Friedrich Hultsch (Griechische und romische Metrologie, 2nd edn. [Berlin, 1882], pp. 101-4, 107-8, 703. RE, vol. 3, pt. 2, cols. 2526-27, s.v. "Chous"), though their validity for Archaic Athens remains unproved. In the TECHNICAL FEATURES sections, I have used the terms defined by Joseph Veach Noble in The Techniques of Painted Attic Pottery, 2nd edn. (New York, 1988), pp. 116-47. My contour stripe is the equivalent of Noble's "eighth-inch stripe" (see Noble, op. cit., p. 105). I have followed the same order of descrip­ tion in each entry: preliminary sketch; contour stripe; relief contour; relief lines; dilute glaze; added color. I do not describe the use of plain black glaze, nor do I note the absence of any given feature: If, for example, dilute glaze is not mentioned, then there is no dilute glaze on the vase. Where appropriate, I end the section with a description of misfirings and other accidents of the pro­ duction process. In describing anatomy, I have on occasion used terms coined by Donna C. Kurtz for her publication of Beazley's Berlin Painter drawings (see Kurtz and Beazley, pp. 42-46). These terms, such as "pectoral fullness lines," are set off by IX quotation marks and are defined in Kurtz's volume. I have used the word "hair­ line" for the strands of hair surrounding the face and behind the ear. For the PROVENANCE sections, I have listed the year in which Mr. and Mrs. Bareiss purchased the piece, if it is known. If a vase was bought at auction, I give the appropriate vendor, date, place, and lot number. In many cases, however, even such basic information is unavailable today. On the formation of the Bareiss Col­ lection, see Dietrich von Bothmer's essay in Getty Bareiss. All of the vases and fragments herein have been listed in the Acquisitions Sup­ plements of GettyMus] 14 and 15 (1986, 1987). As these publications merely note the gross number of vases acquired in a given year, without illustrations or ac­ companying text, they have not been included in the BIBLIOGRAPHY for each piece. With regard to bibliographic abbreviations, I have with few exceptions followed those of previous Getty CVA fascicules. Journal titles are abbreviated as per the American journal of Archaeology. The format for the COMPARANDA is, generally, as follows. The first paragraph contains a very brief discussion of the painter, shape, and decoration, with cita­ tions of relevant texts and parallels. I have assumed here that the reader of a CVA fascicule already knows of the standard surveys, such as Sir John Board- man's handbooks or M. G. Kanowski's Containers of Classical Greece (New York, 1984). Though such works are, of course, invaluable, I have preferred to list on­ ly more detailed discussions. This paragraph is followed by closer stylistic com­ parisons. The section concludes with a discussion of iconographic issues and, when relevant, graffiti. In some cases, these various parts have been conflated in­ to a single paragraph; the general order, however, remains for the most part constant.
