5 inches tall, 3 inches wide, with a 1 inch opening, this elegant amphora-inspired double-handled vase features extraordinary detail in the painterly rendering of an imaginary stage setting. One side features a nude actor standing in front of a background depicting a blue sky and rolling hills. He is removing a yellow mask from his face and the red ribbon ties elegantly entwine with his arms as he lowers the mask. Behind the backdrop, a fake tree stands. On the opposite side, a set featuring a floor standing reading lamp, red upholstered chair, and a side table holding a single stem glass are arranged in front of a background depicting a book shelf packed with books and other curious items. Both scenes are dramatically lit and stand out from the pitch black of the unlit stage backdrop. The overall effect is a small scale theatrical experience frozen in time.
