Zwei korinthische Aryballoi
Two Corinthian aryballoi. Greek 6th C. BC. Pottery, partially painted black. Signs of age.
In Ancient Greece aryballoi were used to contain aromatic liquids, particularly anointing oils. Actually, the name aryballos describes the leather bag, in which the vessel has been kept. Usually it served for the body care of men and athletes, while women preferred the use of the alabastron for the same purpose. The numerous preserved depictions in vase paintings are showing that the small vessels were mostly attached by a strap to the athlete's wrist.
Provenance: purchased in the 1960s at Römisch-Germanisches Museum, Cologne; since then private collection Dr. Dr. Albert Gilles, Cologne, and succession.

Aryballoi wurden im antiken Griechenland vor allem für die Aufbewahrung von aromatischen Flüssigkeiten, insbesondere Salbölen, verwendet. Der Name Aryballos bezeichnet dabei eigentlich den Lederbeutel, in dem das Fläschchen normalerweise verwahrt wurde. Das Gefäß diente der Körperpflege von Männern und Athleten, während Frauen sich zum selben Zweck eher des Alabastrons bedienten. Die zahlreichen erhaltenen Darstellungen in der Vasenmalerei belegen, dass die kleinen Gefäße an einem Lederriemen befestigt am Handgelenk getragen wurden.
Provenienz: erworben in den 1960er Jahren im Römisch-Germanischen Museum, Köln; seitdem Privatsammlung Dr. Dr. Albert Gilles, Köln, und Nachfolge.
