SARCOPHAGUS A LENOS, C2-C3 CE. PALAZZO BARBERINI The sarcophagus a lenos, "tub-shaped", allowed wealthier people a showier coffin without corners, capable of being put on a base and admired from all sides. Three notches on the far rim show where the heavy lid would have been attached. The form is that of an elegant tub, complete with lion heads holding marble rings in their mouths, alluding to the portability of the real tub, which would be used for stomping grapes to make wine. The strigillation is continuous, alluding simultaneously to the river Styx, the river Oceanus that was thought to gird the world, as well as the cyclical nature of time, and the ripples in the wine that brings sleep, a metaphor for death.
#SarcophagusSaturday takes us into #palazzoBarberini in #Rome to see this beautiful tub #sarcophagus in white marble surrounded by continuous #strigillation. This is an elegant #Dionysiac coffin: here the wave forms represent wine as well as the circular nature of time, and more. #AncientBluesky 🏺

GARLAND SARCOPHAGUS, C. 150-180 CE. PALAZZO BARBERINI This beautiful Girlandensarkophag is of unknown provenance and is missing the entire back half. The front is measured out by four Erotes who are struggling to carry a richly-laden garland in three swags. The two Erotes on the end are stepping on animals (!), at left a duck, at right a bunny. Above the garlands are three damaged scenes that rapidly telegraph the legend of Marsyas: at left is Athena, her face puffing out with the effort of playing a flute to one of her maidens, seated on a rock above. An owl is also silently judging Athena for looking ridiculous. At centre, Marsyas has already found the flute discarded by Athena, has already foolishly challenged Apollo to a music contest, and has already lost. He is bound nude to a tree and a Scythian is about to skin him alive. At right, Apollo, the winner, reposes languidly, chatting to a nymph as the Eros at far right holds a crown over his head. The unrelated base is from about 1500 and features the double crowns of Castile and Aragon.
#SarcophagusSaturday forced me to go to the #GalleriaNazionale in #palazzoBarberini in #Rome, which is indifferent to its ancient art collection and offers no information. I randomly found details about this #sarcophagus on a #German website, in German. But I'm glad I did. #AncientBluesky 🏺
