CAVI Lemma: RF cup. Painter of Louvre G 36. Cachrylion, potter. Last quarter sixth.
CAVI Subject: Int.: ball player: a nude youth running and about to throw a ball. A: four
youths washing, two of them facing the laver. B: in the center, a victor (only
the lower part is preserved); to his left and right, draped youths bringing him
branches (mostly not indicated){1}.
CAVI Inscriptions: Int.: around the tondo: Χαχ[ρυ]λ̣ιον επ[οιεσ]ε̣ν{2}. A: near the lip: hο παις
καλος. Between figures 1 and 2: καλος. Between the louterion and figure 3: νε
Δια, retr. (i.e. facing number 3). To right of the fourth figure: καλος. B:
between the left handle palmette and figure 1: καλος, retr. (i.e. facing figure
1). Between figures 1 and 2: [κα]λος, retr. To right and left of figure 2,
horizontal [so Giroux]: κ̣[αλ]ος. From the mouth of figure 3: νε Δ[ια], retr. To
right of figure 3, downward: hο π[α]ις καλος, retr.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} see Giroux; Beazley too says `victor'. An odd scene: the victor, and the
admirer on his right, between them hold a short vertical stick; Giroux thinks it
may mark the place where the discus [is the victor a discobolus?] has fallen. I
see a reserved area near the bottom of the stick: is it a discus seen from the
side or a halter? {2} Beazley has Χαχ[ρυλι]ον επ[οιεσ]ε, "complete aft", but CVA
gives the final nu. Giroux remarks upon the traces of lambda and epsilon, whence
I have dotted them. Note that Beazley gives the same ending for Louvre G 38, by
the same painter.
