Description
Pottery: black-figure hydria. Design in black on a red panel, with borders of dots down the sides; no accessories. No marked distinction in shape between neck, shoulder, and body, though the body is somewhat more cylindrical than usual for the form. The handle has a high loop, terminating at the upper juncture in a cross-piece.
A Maenad advancing to right between Satyrs; she has long hair with a fillet, long chiton, lyre in left hand. The Satyr in front looks back, with right hand raised; the one behind has a syrinx (pan pipes) in left hand, right extended. In the field, branches.
