red-figure vase painting
Nota de aplicación
Technique used on Ancient Greek pottery in which background and outlines of the figures were painted in black slip, leaving the design in the void of the background red clay, thus the figures were red in color. Details could be added in black with a brush, leading to greater sophistication than with black-figure vase painting. It appeared in Athens ca. 530 BCE.
