Apulian Red-figure Lid from a Pyxis or Lekanis
Orange-buff fabric with semi-lustrous black slip. Radial stripes on flat handle knob. The decoration on the low, conical lid is divided into quadrants. Two of these are filled with large palmettes. The other two have identical depictions of the head of a woman wearing a tiara, necklace, earrings, and an elaborate hairstyle.
