Copo com aves e animais

ca. 4th century BCE
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 202
Este copo de prata, talvez proveniente da região que é hoje a Romênia ou a Bulgária, é um excelente exemplo da técnica dos ourives trácios. O estilo decorativo fantástico, que representa os animais e seus chifres cobertos com cabeças de pássaros, caracteriza a arte dos povos nômades que, durante o primeiro milênio a.C., migraram para a Europa pelas estepes da Rússia meridional. Embora existam influências estilísticas contemporâneas escitas e iranianas, a iconografia destas cenas é, sem dúvida, traciana e talvez seja uma alusão a mitos e lendas do povo trácio.
