CAVI Lemma: Frs. of RF/WG cup. From Athens. Manner of Onesimos (Panaitios Painter) (but
see below!). Euphronios, potter. Early fifth.
CAVI Subject: Int., WG: Athena to left pouring libation; owl at left. Ext., RF: A: fr. a:
seated man to left with phiale and spear. B: fr. c: hand of male holding
kantharos to left, offering a libation.
CAVI Inscriptions: Int.: in zone outside of picture: [Ευφρο]νι[ο]ς εποιεσεν{1}. A: fr. a: to
left of man's open mouth: Ζεῦ Σο̃τερ, retr.{2}. At left: κυι̣(3) and below, the
first letter of another word. B: fr. c: above and to right of hand holding
kantharos (clearly issuing from the lost mouth), horizontal and eventually
bending down sharply: σπένδο̅ το̃ι Δαίμονι το̃ι Ἀγαθ[ο̃ι]{4}.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} Williams (1991), n. 16 (listing), attributes to the Antiphon Painter. {2}
the iota uncertain (ARV[2] 1646); Graef–Langlotz has only νι.ς; ARV[2] adds the
εποιεσεν; is it on the lost fr.? {2} the ph.shows only Ζευ̣ and a break. {3} the
iota uncertain (ARV[2] 1646); Graef–Langlotz prints: κυλh in Attic letters. {4}
so ARV[2]; Graef–Langlotz has [σπ]ενδο.
CAVI Comments: Frs. a - c + a lost piece. See Graef–Langlotz's discussion of the libations.
Long discussion and bibl. in D(elight) Tolles, The Banquet Libations of the
Greeks (Bryn Mawr diss. 1943) 61-62. She thinks the Agathos Daimon is = Zeus
Soter. Cf. also ibid. 70 n. 119. - Williams (1991), ...., n. 16 (listing),
attributes to the Antiphon Painter.
