Excerpt from Attic Red-Figured Vases in American Museums I am deeply indebted to the Syndics of Harvard University Press for undertaking to publish my book, and to the stafi for the pains taken in producing it, and I owe a very special debt to Dr. Joseph Clark Hoppin for recommending it to the Press, for furnishing guarantees, for verifying references, for suggesting improvements, in fact for a hundred services without which the book could not have appeared. My warmest thanks are also due to Miss Lucy Buckler, who superintended the typing of my manu script, to Mr. Andrew Gow, who, as well as Dr. Hoppin, has read the proofs, and has improved the text in many places by his scholarly criticism; and to Professor G.

This volume contains additions to Beazley's two great works, Attic Black-figure Vase-Painters published in 1956 and the second edition of Attic Red-figure Vase-Painters published in 1963. These additions are partly new finds and partly the result of pondering over unattributed vases. There are also additions to the comments on vases already mentioned in the earlier books. Originally published in 1971, the year after Beazley's death, the book remains indispensable to all students of Greek vase-painting.

Athenian Potters and Painters III presents a rich mass of new material on Greek vases, including finds from excavations at the Kerameikos in Athens and Despotiko in the Cyclades. Some contributions focus on painters or workshops – Paseas, the Robinson Group, and the structure of the figured pottery industry in Athens; others on vase forms – plates, phialai, cups, and the change in shapes at the end of the sixth century BC. Context, trade, kalos inscriptions, reception, the fabrication of inscribed painters’ names to create a fictitious biography, and the reconstruction of the contents of an Etruscan tomb are also explored. The iconography and iconology of various types of figured scenes on Attic pottery serve as the subject of a wide range of papers – chariots, dogs, baskets, heads, departures, an Amazonomachy, Menelaus and Helen, red-figure komasts, symposia, and scenes of pursuit. Among the special vases presented are a black spotlight stamnos and a column krater by the Suessula Painter. Athenian Potters and Painters III, the proceedings of an international conference held at the College of William and Mary in Virginia in 2012, will, like the previous two volumes, become a standard reference work in the study of Greek pottery.
