CAVI Lemma: Frs. of RF skyphos. From Gela. Unattributed. Second quarter fifth. 475-425
(Bea. Arch.).
CAVI Subject: A: Death of Hipparchos: parts of Harmodius, Hipparchos (raised arm holding [a
sword] above the head; at left, a bearded man). B: warriors; woman.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} Orsi gives the inscriptions in the Ionic alphabet, but I am not sure that
this is right.
CAVI Comments: Duplicate entry: 3765 (Gela), q.v. Orsi thinks another RF skyphos fr., also
from Gela, NSc 1900, 276/(d), q.v., may belong, but the subject is evidently
different and (according to Webster) Beazley does not connect the two frs.; it
could of course be from the other side. Webster thinks the four representations
of the Murder of Hipparchus, being all of 475-460, are reflections of the
post-Persian Group of the Tyrannicides by Critias and Nesiotes. - Orsi gave the
location as Palermo?, but Beazley, if rightly quoted by Webster, gave Gela. The
vase is now in the Villa Giulia.
