English: 6th c. BC representation of an animal sacrifice scene in Pitsa panels. Translation from French: "One of the four painted wood slabs of Pitsa, found in 1934 near Sicyon, Corinthia, in a cave above the village of Pitsa. Inscriptions reveal that they were dedicated to the Nymphs, venerated in this cave. The painted wooden plates were the most popular and most economic items dedicated to sanctuaries. These examples from Pitsa are of great value because they are the only example of Corinthian paint on a large scale. They are made with the technique of "xerography", using mineral pigments. Inside the red or black outlines of figures, colors (white, red, blue, yellow, purple, brown, green and black) without gradation were applied. Dedications are written in Corinthian alphabet.
The plaque represents a procession to an altar to sacrifice a lamb to the sound of the aulos and the lyre. Dedication to the Graces (Charites) is indicated with the names of Euthydika, Eukolis, Etheloncha and, on the side, the name of the painter, of which only the origin, Corinthian, still remains. c. 540-530 BC. National Archaeological Museum of Athens, No. 16,464." Français : Une des quatre plaques de bois peintes de Pitsa, trouvées en 1934, près de Sicyone, dans une grotte au-dessus du village de Pitsa, en Corinthie. Les inscriptions révèlent qu'elles étaient dédiées aux Nymphes, vénérées dans cette grotte. Les plaques de bois peintes étaient les formes les plus populaires et les plus économiques de dédicaces aux sanctuaires. Celles de Pitsa sont d'une grande valeur, car elles constituent le seul exemple de peinture corinthienne à grande échelle. Elles sont réalisées avec la technique de la "xérographie", utilisant des pigments minéraux. À l'intérieur des contours rouges ou noirs des figures, les couleurs (blanc, rouge, bleu, jaune, violet, brun, vert et noir) étaient appliquées sans gradation. Les inscriptions des dédicaces sont écrites en alphabet corinthien. La plaque représente une procession à un autel pour sacrifier un agneau, au son de la flûte et de la lyre. La dédicace aux Grâces (Charites) est indiquée, avec les noms d'Euthydika, Eukolis, Etheloncha, et sur le côté, le nom du peintre dont ne subsiste que l'origine, Corinthien. Vers 540-530 av. J.-C. Musée national archéologique d'Athènes, n° 16464. |
