According to the Metropolitan Museum Of Art, the “black figure” and more sophisticated “red figure” techniques for including artistic images on pottery began in ancient Athens between 600 BCE and 530 BCE. Since the “red figure” technique was less time-consuming and allowed for a greater variety of images, it eventually replaced the earlier “black figure” technique among ancient potters.
