Publication Record: Schwarz, S.J., Greek Vases In the National Museum of Natural History Smithsonian Institution Washington, D.C. (Rome, 1996): PL.57.NO.44
CAVI Lemma: Fr. of RF cup. From Italy. Colmar Painter (Schwarz). Early fifth. Ca. 510-500
(Schwarz). Early (Schwarz).
CAVI Subject: A: upper part of a hoplitodromos.
CAVI Inscriptions: A: on the shield is a BG sign which Schwarz interprets as an Ionic lambda
with uneven bars, but it looks more like a smeared alpha and is probably not a
letter. I ignore Schwarz' suggestions (Leagros or Lysis). To left of the youth's
forelocks: [--]να̣^[--](1) (Schwarz seems to be doubtful of the alpha; I was
not.) She suggests Panaitios kalos [probably [Πα]να^[ιτιος ---] rather than
[Π]^αν[αιτιος ---], retr., as the head intervenes. [Cf. New York 14.105.9].
CAVI Footnotes: {1} the extant letters stop at the face.
CAVI Comments: A small fr. Schwarz says the race of hoplitodromoi is a favorite subject of
the early Colmar Painter.
