  • CAVI Subject: A: Sending Out of Triptolemos in the winged chair: at left, Demeter seated, with a companion pouring her a libation; at right, Kore (Persephone) pouring into a phiale held by Triptolemos; another companion. B: Dionysiac thiasos: a maenad playing the lyre; an old satyr; Dionysus; a maenad with an oinochoe. Under the handles: between the maenad with the oinochoe and the seated Demeter: Pan. Between Kore's companion and the lyre player: a satyr.
