The image shows a monochrome photograph of a spherical-shaped ancient Greek pottery vessel, likely a variant of an oinochoe or a similar type of jug, characterized by its single handle and narrow neck. The body is mainly decorated with horizontal stripes and bands, alternating between lighter and darker shades, possibly to distinguish between the clay's natural color and added pigments. Additionally, the neck exhibits a swirling pattern, and the handle is carefully attached to the vessel's mouth and shoulder, indicating a functional design for pouring. The vessel appears to be well-preserved or reconstructed, with visible cracks and chips that suggest age and historical significance. The background is plain, emphasizing the artifact itself.
