CAVI Lemma: RF bell krater. From South Italy. Painter of Louvre G 508. Ca. 400.
CAVI Subject: A: unexplained subject: a seated youth; woman; Apollo seated; youth;
woman{1}. B: three youths.
CAVI Inscriptions: A: modern inscriptions: Ερμη[ς]. Αφροδιτη. Between a youth and a woman, at
shoulder height: Παλλας. [Αλεξ]ανδρος. Ηρα.
CAVI Footnotes: For the subject Beazley compares A of the RF bell krater Vienna 1089 (name
piece), where the subject is similar and also unexplained.
CAVI Comments: Much restored. The inscriptions, in applied white, are in the regular modern
standard Greek alphabet using lower case letters and are clearly false. The
subject was not the Judgment of Paris. (This information from M. Bentz who sent
me a photo of the inscription `Pallas'). Pallas for Athena is I think unknown in
this period on vases.
