CAVI Collection: Ferrara, Museo Nazionale di Spina T 1145.
CAVI Lemma: RF calyx krater. From Spina. Iphigeneia Painter. Early fourth.
CAVI Subject: A: Iphigeneia in Tauris. B: three satyrs.
CAVI Inscriptions: A: Iphigeneia holds out a letter (tablet? folded sheet?) with some nonsense
letters on it.
CAVI Comments: The vase furnishes an illustration of Euripides' Iphigeneia in Tauris,
combining different scenes. The letter held by Iphigeneia is THE letter: Pylades
raises his hand to take it and hand it to Orestes. The Iphigeneia Painter is
akin to the Oinomaos Painter.
