摘要:The exquisitely decorated Chigi Vase, made around 640 BC, is one of the best known of all Greek painted pots, and with its three intricate friezes with human figures it is certainly among the most ambitious ever produced at Corinth. Found in Etruria, it is not clear for whom it was originally made. It is easier to describe what it shows than to make firm statements about what it was intended to convey; most earlier discussions (usually very brief) have concluded that no linkage between the scenes was intended. Two more recent analyses, however, see an over-arching ‘programme’ at work, concerned with the paideia and training of Greek youths. The present discussion concentrates on the possible connections between the Judgement of Paris painted under the handle, and the other scenes, at the same time taking the remaining works of the Chigi Painter into consideration, and argues that the pot has more to do with Paris than previously thought.
