CAVI Lemma: Fragmentary RF cup. From Gela. Unattributed{1}; Eucharides Painter
(Langridge). First quarter fifth. 490-480 (Boulter).
CAVI Subject: Int.: crouching warrior sacrificing a ram. Ext.: plain.
CAVI Inscriptions: Int.: around the warrior, starting at lower left: Χαι[ρ]ιας κα[λος]{2}.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} Beazley says that the drapery recalls the Eucharides Painter; but the
popular Chairias kalos is of the late sixth century: this must be Chairias II
(ARV[2] 1571, top). Langridge lists the vase as by the Eucharides Painter and
refers me to CVA, Cleveland. {2} Beazley gives the rho as extant, but I did not
see it and CVA does not have it.
