Alessandro Neri

Ca. 100-200 AD

A pottery jar featuring a globular body that tapers gently to a low ring foot and through a rounded shoulder to a neck with an everted and pronounced rim. The shape of the vessel is a testament to the technical mastery and aesthetic sensibilities of Roman potters, who were renowned for their skill in creating elegant and functional vessels. Roman ceramic production was a highly developed and sophisticated art form. The Romans were adept at using a variety of techniques to create ceramics of exceptional quality, including throwing, molding, and stamping. This pottery jar is a remarkable example of their skill in throwing, which involves shaping the vessel on a wheel by hand. The form of this jar is typical of Roman pottery, which was characterized by a focus on function and durability, combined with a refined aesthetic sensibility. The vessel would have been used for a variety of purposes, from storage to transport of liquids and solids. Its elegant form and subtle decorative elements are a testament to the Romans' appreciation of beauty and craftsmanship.
