Guide to the Collection of South Italian and Sicilian Terracottas

An annotated list of the more than 1,000 terracottas in the collection of the J. Paul Getty Museum

The following guide is a supplement to Ancient Terracottas from South Italy and Sicily in the J. Paul Getty Museum. In addition to the sixty objects studied in depth by Maria Lucia Ferruzza, the museum holds a quantity of statuettes, sculptures, and artifacts that have not been closely analyzed; many remain largely unpublished. Spanning the centuries between 5000 BC and the second century AD, small numbers of Neolithic, Mycenaean, Cypriote, Greek (Boeotian and Tanagra), East Greek (Rhodian, Samian, and Mysian), Etruscan, Romano-Egyptian, and Roman figurines were acquired individually. By far the largest group of terracottas, however, consists of votive dedications from sanctuaries and cemeteries in Puglia, Lucania, Calabria, Campania, and Sicily. Most were donations received in the 1970s and 1980s and destined to form a study collection.

With the aim of facilitating further research on this material, this guide indexes over 1,000 terracottas. Two major lots consist of fragmentary figures that can be associated with Taranto and Metaponto, while a third lot and other individual pieces are more generally identified with workshops in southern Italy. Although the lack of documentation makes it difficult to ascertain whether some extraneous objects were mixed in with these lots, the repetition of types and the consistency of the fabric suggest that these assemblages were found together in votive deposits. The focus of Ancient Terracottas is extended here in two key areas. This guide includes several female heads from a mold series known in Capua, as well as a significant group of statuettes likely to have come from Teano, which reflect the links between Campania and production centers in Magna Graecia and Latium. Important for any study of the rich coroplastic traditions of the Italian peninsula is the series of thirty-nine molds, mainly made in Taranto, four of which are inscribed with the coroplast’s name or monogram.

The collection of portable, mass-produced terracottas, including Canosan figural vessel appliqués (but excluding lamps, plastic vases, and architectural sculpture), is indexed below according to the region of origin. Object information and images can also be accessed on the Museum’s online collection pages (www.getty.edu/art/collection), which will be updated as new discoveries are made. The brief descriptions below are based on the information supplied at the time of acquisition, from publications, and more recent observations.

  83.AD.354.1–394: A group of 394 fragments that comprise 292 votive objects, consisting of types associated with the areas of Taranto (272), Apulia (1), and Metaponto (55; see below for further discussion of the Metapontine examples), with the remainder from unidentified South Italian workshops. The earliest Tarentine votives in this lot date from the sixth to fifth centuries BC and depict figures of a standing goddess with a snake, a sphinx, a head of a woman wearing a conical polos, and a pair of seated goddesses. One fragment of the upper arm of a woman wearing a chiton fastened by three buttons (83.AD.354.15; fig. 9) is close to life size. A small number (21 objects) are fourth-century BC types: squatting silenos, head of a silenos or papposilenos, satyr playing flutes, heads of comic actors, and female heads and figures. The majority of the objects belong to the third century BC, with a great variety of figures and heads of women with melon coiffeurs (standing and seated, draped and nude female figures; dancer; mother and child). Also present are figurines of animals (dogs, cat, coiled snake, birds, horse, ape on a lion’s back, lion, turtle, animals mounting, cow?, boy riding a pig); mythological figures (Aphrodite leaning against a pillar, standing nude figures of Aphrodite, Nike, Eros); and a small number of male figures (head of a boy, torso). Gift of Stefan Hornak.

Terracotta Molds

Thirty-nine molds depict types that belong to the repertoires of Tarentine and, more generally, South Italian terracottas. Seven molds acquired in 1973 were part of a group of 430 fourth-century BC terracottas, mainly representing female heads (see 73.AD.10 under “South Italy”). In 1974, 1975, and 1976, three groups of Tarentine molds came to the Getty from the collection of Norman Neuerberg. These molds produced figurines in the round and reliefs for decorative appliqués. Four examples are marked with the names or monograms of Tarentine coroplastic workshops.

South Italy

• 

  71.AD.345: (fig. 14) Seated goddess, probably Persephone, wearing an epiblema and a high-belted chiton, with her head tilted to the left; traces of polychromy are visible on the surface; third century BC. See Alex G. Malloy, Ancient Art and Antiquities (1971), vol. 1, p. 18, no. 109.

• 

  71.AD.346: (fig. 15) Goddess seated on a high, round-backed throne, wearing a chiton, himation, and stephane with a central ornament; large loops of hair at each ear; third century BC. See Alex G. Malloy, Ancient Art and Antiquities (1971), vol. 1, p. 18, no. 108.

• 

  71.AD.358: (fig. 16) Upper half of a seated goddess, perhaps Persephone, wearing a himation and veil, with her right arm resting on her lap; the goddess is seated on a throne; pairs of rosettes decorate the backrest on either side of her shoulders; fifth century BC.

• 73.AD.10.A.1–73.AD.10.P.15: Group of 450 votives dated to the fourth century BC on the basis of associated sherds of an Attic red-figure bell krater, Attic lekythoi, a lamp, and South Italian and Gnathia pottery sherds. In addition to the seven South Italian molds listed above, the lot is almost exclusively composed of female heads, fragmentary figures, and a small number of male heads. Of the fifteen discoid or horse-shoe loom-weights (73.AD.10.I.1–15), several have figural reliefs, with images of a kneeling child holding an animal, Eros on a dolphin, Aphrodite riding a swan, an owl with arms holding a distaff over a kalathos, frontal head of a woman, and two facing busts (the so-called kissers type). The loom-weights belong to a series regularly found at sites in the region of Taranto, Metaponto, and Herakleia, beginning in the second half of the fourth century BC. If they belong with the accompanying group of votive heads, an origin in one of the Greek settlements along the Ionian coast is likely. Acquired from Royal Athena Galleries, New York.

Campania

• 71.AD.304: (fig. 19) Head of a woman, with melon coiffeur and veil, and a long neck with incised Venus ring; from a mold series found at Capua; ca. 250–200 BC. See Smithers 1993, p. 26, fig. 18, and Alex G. Malloy, Ancient Art and Antiquities (1971), vol. 1, p. 18, no. 121.

• 71.AD.305: (fig. 20) Head of a woman with disc earrings and a veil covering the back portion of the head, from the same mold generation as an identical head in the Museo Campano in Capua, dated 300–275 BC. See Smithers 1993, p. 24, fig. 14, and Alex G. Malloy, Ancient Art and Antiquities (1971), vol. 1, p. 18, no. 123.

• 71.AD.306: (fig. 21) Head of a woman wearing a veil, a fillet with a central bead, and a coiled torque necklace; stylistically similar to heads in Capua and Cales; 300–250 BC. See Smithers 1993, p. 25, fig. 17, and Alex G. Malloy, Ancient Art and Antiquities (1971), vol. 1, p. 18, no. 122.

• 82.AD.52.1–153: A large group of votives was donated in 1982 and reportedly comes from Campania. Many of the figures are fragmentary and show evidence of burning. The fabric is reddish brown with black and reflective inclusions, and the statuettes are hand modeled and summarily finished with a tool; there are occasional traces of cream slip and red pigment. Dating to the sixth and fifth centuries BC, the group comprises male and female figures standing on rectangular plinths; heads of women, some wearing a tall, flaring polos (82.AD.52.10; fig. 23); men wearing short, pleated tunics fastened on one shoulder (82.AD.52.133; fig. 27); male heads, some with crested helmets (82.AD.52.129; fig. 26) or other styles of headgear; shields with a fragmentary hand or arm attached to the inside; a seated figure with an animal; a plaque of a standing figure with a snake; and men, both draped and nude, standing with hands on hips (82.AD.58.132 and 135). On some, locks of hair are denoted by circular impressions (82.AD.52.128; fig. 25). A large statuette (82.AD.52.1, H: 56 cm; fig. 22) of a warrior sports a short Italic-type cuirass ending above the genitals and a helmet. In addition to the statuettes, the group includes a Campanian female antefix (82.AD.52.70; fig. 24) crowned with a headband and radiating tongues. The consistency of the fabric, repetition of types, and pattern of damage suggest that the statuettes formed part of a single votive deposit. Similar statuette types are attested in votive deposits from the sanctuary of Juno Popluna at Masseria Soppegna, Fondo Ruozzo, near Teano. Gift of Vasek Polak.

• 98.AD.119: Head of a woman wearing a tall polos; the face is U-shaped, with a prominent pointed nose and ears rendered as flat discs; sixth century BC.

Gift of J. Paul Getty. See G. Buscemi Felice, “Libertini collezionista: Dagli acquisti con Paolo Orsi alle acquisizioni ‘accademiche’; ‘Controfigure archeologiche’ e pasticci nella collezione,” in G. Biondi et al., Il Museo di Archeologia dell’Università di Catania: Collezione Libertini (Rome, 2014), p. 35, n. 59, fig. 11.
