Photograph of an East Greek dinos (bowl) decorated with friezes of grazing wild goats, probably made in Rhodes around 625–600 BC, now held in the British Museum, London. The vessel exemplifies the Orientalising period of Greek art, with repeated animal friezes arranged in rhythmic bands. Such imagery reflects Near Eastern influence on East Greek pottery and highlights the importance of animal motifs, pattern, and symmetry in early Greek ceramic decoration.
