CAVI Lemma: RF standlet of Sosian type. Sosias Painter (?){1}; unattributed{2}. Last
quarter sixth. 510-500.
CAVI Subject: Satyr frontal, sitting on the ground.
CAVI Inscriptions: Around him(3): Σοσιας ^ εποιεσεν.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} might be by the same hand as [Berlin 2278, ARV[2] 21/1, by the Sosias
Painter], but there is not enough to compare (Beazley). But the cup Berlin 2278
is now convincingly attributed to Euthymides by Ohly-Dumm; see AttScr (1990),
no. 384. {2} see Robertson, Robertson (1992), 59 and Ohly-Dumm (1984), 171 and
n. 53. {3} the name is on the left, starting at 8 o'clock, upward; the verb is
downward, starting to right of the head.
CAVI Comments: Sosias is greeted on Louvre G 44 and Syracuse 58.3282, both by Euthymides,
and on Louvre G 42 by Phintias. It is also the name of a warrior on Once Naples,
Bourguignon (ARV[2] 33/3) (Ohly-Dumm (1984), 165 n. 11, thinks it is late work
of Euthymides). - Wehgartner thinks this is not a stand nor a dish; the pieces
are dedicatory or funeral gifts, possibly game pieces (F.P. Johnson). An early
work probably by the same painter as the famous cup with Achilles healing
Patroclus, Berlin 2278, a late work. The signatures may be by the same hand but
they need not be [I agree: sigma and alpha are very similar, epsilon and nu
apparently not (assuming the dr. is accurate); the general ductus is similar].
W. is inclined to think potter and painter the same person.
