CAVI Footnotes: {1} this is mostly restoration, hence not mentioned in ARV[2]. {2} my notes
speak of other elements on this side; probably restored. {3} for hερμοναχς. No
way of telling whether this was stoich. The epsilon is certain. {4} wrongly
given as three-stroke sigma in ARV[2].
CAVI Comments: Much restored (including the signature, which has closed heta and phi with a
long vertical!). Beazley says this vase is a replica of Orvieto, Faina 66,
ARV[2], no. 5, where he also gives for the only subject `Youth pursuing a
woman,' and where the signature is correct. Four-stroke sigma{4}. - The ph. in
Hyatt shows most of A, as restored, including the restored signature:
left-aligned stoich. two-liner, bearing downward: hερμον^εχς | εγραφσ^εν. The
last letters in both lines are barely visible. The scepter intervenes.
