Description: Buy a Pythagorean Cup , painted and decorated with Geometric Art . Geometric art is a phase of Greek art, characterized largely by geometric motifs in vase painting, that flourished towards the end of the Greek dark ages, circa 900 BC – 700 BC. Its center was in Athens and from there the style spread among the trading cities of the Aegean. The vases had various uses or purposes within Greek society, including, but not limited to, funerary vases and symposium vases. People and animals are depicted geometrically in a dark glossy color, while the remaining vessel is covered by strict zones of meanders, crooked lines, circles, swastikas, in the same graphical concept. Later, the main tragic theme of the wail declined, the compositions eased, the geometric shapes have become more freely, and areas with animals, birds, scenes of shipwrecks, hunting scenes, themes from mythology or the Homeric epics led Geometric pottery into more naturalistic expressions. A Pythagorean cup (also known as a Pythagoras cup, a Greedy Cup or a Tantalus cup) is a form of drinking cup which forces its user to imbibe only in moderation.
