Lekythos com mulheres tecendo lã e uma mulher rodeada de jovens e donzelas

Attributed to the Amasis Painter
ca. 550–530 BCE
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 154
Acredita-se que este lekythos (frasco de óleo) foi encontrado junto com um outro, também conservado no Museu, que representa uma procissão nupcial: uma noiva é levada de noite para a casa do noivo. Talvez os dois vasos tenham sido presentes de casamento que acompanharam a noiva na sua tumba. Este vaso representa em detalhe a fabricação de tecidos, uma importante tarefa doméstica, mostrada aqui com detalhe, dando ênfase especial a um tear vertical. Em ambos os lados do tear algumas mulheres pesam e tecem a lã e dobram peças de tecido. Estas cenas acontecem na parte da casa reservada às mulheres.
