CAVI Footnotes: {1} "THE FACE RECALLS THE BOSTON CUP 01.8018 (P. 317 NO. 9)," BEAZLEY. G.F.
PINNEY ATTRIBUTES TO HERMOKRATES. {2} B.-O. SUGGESTS HERMO[LYKOS] AS ON MALIBU
83.AE.217, BUT MENTIONS ALSO HERMO[GENES] (GUY), AS ON LOUVRE G 115 AND
HERMO[KRATES], THE VASE PAINTER (PINNEY).
CAVI Comments: (CF. COMMENTS ON ACR. II, 79.) LANGLOTZ RESTORED THE VASE PAINTER
Hερμο[κρατες, WHICH IS ACCEPTED BY PINNEY. BEAZLEY PUT THE INSCRIPTION UNDER
KALOS-NAMES AS Hερμο[---]. ACCORDING TO PINNEY HERMOKRATES WAS THE NAME OF THE
SALTING PAINTER. I REFRAIN FROM ACCEPTING THE INSCRIPTION AS A SIGNATURE, SINCE
BEAZLEY APPARENTLY DID NOT CONNECT ACR. II, 5 WITH 223. HERMOGENES OCCURS AS A
KALOS-NAME IN DOURIS (ARV[2] 434/74, 1583), WHICH IS SOMEWHAT LATER.
