- CAVI Collection: Rome, Vatican 16,541.
- CAVI Lemma: RF cup. From Vulci. Oedipus Painter{1}. Python, potter. First quarter fifth.
- CAVI Subject: Int.: Oedipus and the sphinx. A-B: satyrs.
- CAVI Inscriptions: Int.: to the upper right of Oedipus' head, ending over the sphinx's head:
Οιδιποδες. To left of the sphinx' mouth: [κ]αι τρι[], retr.{2}. R. Guy tells me
that on the exterior are inscriptions in the preliminary sketch which were not
copied on the glaze.
- CAVI Footnotes: {1} close to late Douris. {2} there is room for only one letter before the
face of Oedipus; hence τρι[α].
- CAVI Comments: Oedipus' mouth is slightly open. For the words of the sphinx see Beazley in
AJA. An Etruscan cup, Paris, Musée Rodin 980, copies the exterior of this cup;
see ARV[2]. Hoffmann (1997), 80-82, fig. 41 (dr. [probably after Hartwig]). H.
speculates much on a secondary meaning of `τρια' as spoken by the sphinx.
