The events and heroes described in Homer's Epic of Iliad have inspired the art of antiquity and especially the art of painting from the middle ages. Themes taken from the Iliad have been used extensively in works of art such as ceramic pots, sculptures, mural paintings, metal items, stone reliefs and wooden panels. Especially starting from 6th century BC and lasting until the 3rd century BC, the heroes and adventures of the Trojan War, which were painted on the ancient Greek pottery and vessels, created with the black and red figure painting technique, are among the prominent art objects. Ancient ceramic artists first placed dark-colored figures on the lightly colored (yellow-brown tones) background, which is called as “black figure technique.” In the red-figure technique, lightly colored characters were placed on a dark background and the events and characters depicted in this way were revealed more clearly. Within the scope of this study, the ancient ceramic works of black and red figurines from the ancient period, where the most epic scenes of the Trojan War are depicted, will be narrated with quotations from the original text of the Iliad or with corresponding mythological stories. Iconographic analysis of the scenes on ceramic objects will be made and information about the production technique of ceramic works will be evaluated
