Book Description:

Inferior clays and glazes, unsuited to the red-figure style, means that the indigenous production of red-figure vases in Corinth was very limited. However for about 75 years, in the middle of the fifth century B.C., Corinthian potters tried to imitate the Athenian fashion and this book catalogues 186 pieces of their work.
