a girl who admires a plemochoe given her by him; chair; a seated woman spinning;
a woman with a chest and a wool basket; Eros offering a pair of shoes (as a
wedding gift) to a seated woman who, pointing at them, looks back at a youth who
leans on his stick; two women, one holding out a chest to the other.

offered shoes, a bit to left, but not near the Eros: καλος. Above the head of
the youth with the stick: καλος.
