CAVI Lemma: FRS. OF RF CUP. ONESIMOS. EUPHRONIOS, POTTER (?). FIRST QUARTER FIFTH.
CAVI Subject: INT.: A WARRIOR? (PART OF A SHIELD AND CLOAK){2}. A-B: AJAX AND TEKMESSA;
AJAX' SLAUGHTER OF THE CATTLE{3}.
CAVI Inscriptions: INT.: [Ευφρονιος εποι]εσεν{4}. A OR B: WILLIAMS (1980): [Αγαμεμνο]ν(?)
Ευ[--]. [Ευφρο]νι[ιος εποιεσεν](?)(5) (BUT SEE BELOW).
CAVI Footnotes: {1} ERRONEOUS INTERPRETATION AS AN ATHLETIC SCENE. {2} WILLIAMS (1980: 139)
SUGGESTS PERHAPS THE ARMOR OF ACHILLES GIVEN TO NEOPTOLEMOS AS ON THE DOURIS
CUP, VIENNA 3695. {3} SO WILLIAMS (1980), Q.V. FOR DETAILS OF THE VERY SCANTY
FRS. BEAZLEY HAD SUGGESTED THE DEEDS OF THESEUS, WITH A QUERY. {4} SO CB; NOT
RESTORED IN ARV[2]. {5} WILLIAMS REJECTS THE POSSIBLE ALTERNATIVE: [---]ν VACAT
Ευ[φρο]νι[ος εποιεσεν], ON THE GROUNDS THAT Ευ[-- IS TOO CLOSE TO THE HANDLE TO
BE PART OF A POTTER'S SIGNATURE. HE THUS SUGGESTS HEROIC NAMES; FOR Ευ[--:
Ευ[ρυπυλος] OR Ευρυσακης (ALTHOUGH HE WOULD BE TOO YOUNG). --]νι[-- MIGHT BE
[Τελαμο]νι[ος], BUT IS MORE LIKELY FROM A SIGNATURE. HOWEVER, IN GVGETTYMUS HE
SAYS THAT THAT FR. (C 11,336) DOES NOT BELONG. AK, PL. 33,3 SHOWS νι, PL. 33,4
SHOWS --]ν VACAT Ευ[--. THE FIRST NU HAS THE TYPICAL EUPHRONIAN SHAPE (SEE
EUPHRONIOS UND SEINE ZEIT (1992) 52): DOES THIS MEAN THAT THIS FR. IS FROM A
VASE PAINTED BY EUPHRONIOS?
CAVI Comments: 2 FRS. + C 11,336 (1 FR., Q.V.; THE PERTINENCE IS UNCERTAIN; SEE BELOW). +
NEW YORK 1977.192.3 (PART EX LOUVRE C 11,342 (ARV[2] 327/97, ADD.[2] (1989),
216); PART EX OXFORD, PRIVATE. + NEW YORK, BOTHMER (2 FRS.). WILLIAMS'
RESTORATIONS ARE ATTRACTIVE SINCE A PAINTER'S SIGNATURE IS UNLIKELY (ONESIMOS'
SIGNATURE OCCURS ONLY ONCE, ON LOUVRE G 105).
