krater

基本解释

Set in its windows, like pearls in an oyster, are an elegant Attic red figure krater attributed to a 5th-century BC painter, an Etruscan pouring vessel and an array of vases.
許多骨董像是蚌殼裡的珍珠般被放在櫥窗裡，有一尊造型優美的紅色雅典酒器，推測是出自西元前5世紀一位畫家之手，有一個伊特魯裡亞人水瓶和一整排的花瓶。
Current Status: After several years of negotiation, the Met returned the krater to Italy in 2008 in exchange for the rights to display several comparable artifacts on loan.
目前狀況：經過多年的磋商，大都會博物館在2008年把陶瓶歸還給了意大利，作爲交換，博物館獲得了借走幾件相同價值文物的用來展覽的權利。
And while any cloud of suspicion over the krater's provenance was unbeknownst to Met curators in 1972, the museum faced calls from Italy to return the artifact, originally discovered outside Rome.
所以正儅大都會博物館館長爲陶瓶究竟來自哪裡而感到疑惑時，博物館收到了來自意大利的電話，原來陶瓶是最先在羅馬城外發現的，竝且意大利方麪要求將陶瓶退還。
