Question

What is the aritst trying to communicate on the ancient greek krater?

Answer 1

There may be different interpretations to the same works of art by a wide range of different people, all taking ownership to their different perceptions and interpretations. These propositions are often based on some kind of aesthetic appeal or even that individuals experiences.

However, the Greek historian Herodotus describes many enormous and costly Kraters dedicated to temples or used in some kind of religious ceremonies in order to hold beverages.
