In black-figure vase painting, figural and ornamental motifs were applied with a slip that turned black during firing, while the background was left the color of the clay. In contrast, the decorative motifs on red-figure vases remained the color of the clay; the background, filled in with a slip, turned black.

Answer:

Red-figure is essentially the reverse of the black figure: the background is filled in with a fine slip and has a black color after firing, while the figures are reserved. Details are added using fine brushes instead of through incision, allowing the artists to add a greater level of detail to their art.
