Marble lug bowl
On loan to The Met
This work of art is currently on loan to the museum.Technical analysis: Ultraviolet-induced visible light luminescence examination
This large, lugged bowl, carved of greyish white marble with dark inclusions, is complete with mended losses to the rim. The sides curve upward to a single shallow groove that delineates the rim. Two parallel, vertical, crescent-shaped lugs on one side of the vessel are perforated and would have allowed for its suspension. The placement of these vertical lugs together is atypical this common Early Cycladic I bowl type.(1)
There is a calcareous accretion concentrated around the rim and on the lugs, with light patches elsewhere.
