With the preponderance of painted Greek pottery this short video is amazing giving a window into the incredible art form of the pottery form itself. The painting on Greek pottery is amazing but it takes your eye away from the form. Thanks for a great presentation.
I'm pretty certain that the gentleman knows the definition of "glaze". This description is not accurate here. I believe these are highly polished extremely fine mesh clay objects, and fired to a high temperature, having been painted with some kind of mineral pigment such as manganese.
Nice to see you here James!
