Red Figure Cups of Italiote Fabric with Incised and Stamped Decoration
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 23 December 2013
Extract
Mrs. Ure has published two articles on Attic cups which combine incised and stamped decoration with r.f. painting. The first in JHS LXI deals with stemless kylikes of the second half of the fifth century, the second in LXIV describes a group of later cup-kotylai, running from a little before the turn of the century, to the apparent expiration of this particular style about 370 B.C.

1 I am entirely indebted to Mrs. Ure for the knowledge of these vases, for the loan of photographs and for invaluable help in the preparation of this paper. My thanks are due also to Prof. A. D. Trendall for kindly sending me his opinion on several points. Owing to the war, it has been impossible to obtain confirmation of the permission given to Mrs. Ure some years ago by Monsieur Mayence and Signor Jatta to publish photographs of the vases in Brussels, Naples and Ruvo.
This note was written before the publication of Professor Beazley's article on Campanian Red-Figure (JHS LXIII 66Google Scholar ff.).
The drawing of the interior medallion of Ruvo 326 was made by Mr. Arthur Gott from a rubbing made by Mrs. Ure.

8 Professor Trendall inclines to this view, but it must be remembered that provincial Italiote styles have not all yet been fully worked out. See a cup of similar shape from Capua at Würzburg, Langlotz 885 T249. The style is comparable though by no means identical and the interior has a picture.
9 See a cup in Copenhagen CV IV C, Pl. 237 3a and 3b. This is a little shallower and wider; a good piece of the Tarporley period.
10 When Campanian r.f. pottery comes to be fully studied, the possibility that Etruscan influence had not yet entirely lost its hold on the region must be considered.
11 I am convinced by a close inspection of the rubbing that the sixteen little circle arcs forming the tops of the petals were made first, and the sides added afterwards. There are several cases where the side and the arc do not quite join. Using this method, and drawing free-hand, it is actually easier to make the sides curved than quite straight.
