		It consists of fl figures silhouetted against the deep orange-red clay of the pot: details of hair, musculature, facial features, draperies, etc. are incised onto the fl figures, and added purple and white colours are often used to highlight particular aspects of the figures.
		Though the fl-figure technique was invented at Corinth circa 700 BC, it was Athens which combined the technique with its own established tradition of figured narrative pot painting to command the pottery markets of the sixth century BC.
		At this time we witness a move away from the earlier Corinthian influences, and the disappearance of the frieze style of decoration: this is replaced by a new focus on larger scale compositions which represent the drama of a single moment.
