Description

When this vessel was new, its beauty and delicacy must have delighted all those who saw it. The world has changed in many ways since then-- Byzantium is but a golden memory, the glory of the past remains only in faded fragments--but this stunning vase continues to give pleasure. Time has only made it more rare and lovelier, as if its beauty were created centuries ago with the express purpose of enchanting us today. - (GF.0143)
