CAVI Lemma: Frs. of RF cup. From Athens. Euphronios. Last quarter sixth. 510-500 (so also
Stasinopoulou-Kakarouga in `Euphronios'). Very late (Robertson).
CAVI Subject: Int: part of (male?) head. A-B: wedding of Peleus and Thetis.
CAVI Inscriptions: A: to left of Thetis' mouth,: Θετις, retr. Between two women at the right, in
slightly larger letters: [Ευφρον]ιος εγραφσεν, retr.{1}. Under one handle:
Λεαγ[ρος] καλος. On B: to right of Hera's head: h[ερα]{2}. To upper right of
head:hεφαιστος, retr.{3}. [?καλο]ς, Λε[αγρος]. `Euphronios '191 has quite
different readings: A: Θετις, retr. as above. Seated figure: hεφαιστος.
Signature wrongly rendered: [Ευφρον]ιος [not retr.] εγραφσεν [upside down]. B:
no mention of the heta with Hera. A letter mentioned but not named, for Artemis.
Walking: Leto: letters Λε[το]. A doe and inscription Λεα[γρος] καλος.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} -εν over the design and border. The whole inscription is retr., pace
`Euphr.'; see photo, p. 193. The signature may show a part of the nu before
--]ιος, but there is some damage. {2} the h of Hera is to right of her back of
head, horizontal. {3} to left of H.'s forehead, horizontal but curving at end as
it runs into Athena's helmet: hεφαισ^τος, retr. Athena's spear intervenes. The
Chicago fr.: Art Bulletin 21 (1926) fig. 7: stag, probably under a handle;
remains of inscription Λεαγρος καλος.
CAVI Comments: = N.M. 15,214. Many frs. added, from Chicago University, Schliemann, H.
Seyrig, M. Robertson (ARV[2]). The fr. with Hephaestus from a photo. -
Robertson: one of two latest works (the other the Arezzo krater). - Philippaki
suggests (65) that Leto, Artemis and Apollo were shown as a family group. Sigmas
are turned in retr. There may be more inscriptions; see the bibl. in ARV[2] and
Add.[2]. - Phi is of the bun type, once with slanting vertical.
