CAVI Lemma: Frs. of RF cup. From Castelgiorgio near Orvieto. Castelgiorgio Painter{1}.
First quarter fifth.
CAVI Subject: Fragmentary: Int.: symposium: flautist and male reclining. A-B: Theseus
abducts Helen: A: at left, parts of: Helen being carried off by Theseus; in the
center: a bearded man detains a woman at his right who is coming to the rescue.
B: at left, three women rushing to left; column; at right, portions of four
males; two columns.
CAVI Inscriptions: Int.: in the upper left, upward along the margin: hο π(α)[ις ---]{3}. A:
about head-height: [hο πα]^ις κα^λος{4}. Tübingen fr.: a draped youth with his
spear; hand: to left of the youth: [---]α^[---]. B: no inscription mentioned or
seen. Under the foot, an Etruscan Gr.: see CVA, pl. 101,3-4 (photo and facs.).
CAVI Footnotes: {1} manner of the Brygos Painter. {2} attributed to Brygos. {3} from CVA,
text; faint in the photo. Alpha lacks the cross stroke. {4} the heads of Theseus
and Helen and that of the bearded man intervene. Clear in CVA, pl. 100,1, which
I think does not include the Tübingen fr.
CAVI Comments: + Tübingen S/10 1535 (= E 23). CVA does not indicate clearly where the
Tübingen fr. fits in, but I think it gives part of Helen, in which case the
alpha on this fr. should be that of παις on A.
