CAVI Subject: Two youths dancing the pyrrhiche, with a flautist.
CAVI Inscriptions: Nonsense: behind the youth at left: ποιπιοι. Above his head: λποισ. To right
of his head: πιοπ. To right of his thigh: χυπυ. Behind the youth at right:
οπγο(π){2}. Above the youth at right: σπισ(ο){3}. Beside his thigh: οιστλο,
retr.{4}. Under the foot, Gr.: Π Ι. See Johnston (1979), 115/2D 9 and
Richter–Hall, p. 221.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} recalls the Dikaios Painter; cf. also Louvre G 41 (Beazley). {2} the last
pi is upside down. {3} the last omicron a dot. {4} except the sigma.
CAVI Comments: Richter refers to Beazley's grouping of the vase with London E 254, E 255,
Louvre G 45, etc. The inscriptions here after Hall's drs. These are the typical
short nonsense inscriptions on Pioneer kalpides, cf. Vatican G 17 (Euthymides),
Harvard 1972.40 (recalls Euthymides and the Kleophrades Painter), perhaps Munich
2420 (Pezzino Group).
