Why this is a masterpiece
Pictorial scenes like the one on this vase were very rare before the last phase of the Bronze Age (LM IIIC) so this piece is very interesting due to its age and decoration. History of the Object
From the excavations of the Bronze Age tombs at Enkomi undertaken by the Swedish Cyprus Expedition. (Virtual Collection of Masterpieces, http://masterpieces.asemus.museum/Default.aspx)
