Jh.v.Chr., Beiträge zur Archäologie 20 (Würzburg, 1992): 51, NO.V123 (NOT ILLUSTRATED) Hesperia, The Journal of the American School of Classical Studies at Athens: 18 (1949) PL.80.4 The Athenian Agora, Results of Excavations conducted by the American School of Classical Studies at Athens: 30, 200, FIG.23, PL.49.390 (INCLUDING DRAWING)
CAVI Lemma: Fr. of RF bell krater. From Athens. Close to Talos Painter, if not by him
(Moore). Late fifth (Moore).
CAVI Subject: A: high up: wreathed head of Triptolemos in 3/4 view, and his raised right
hand; at right, part of a scepter (hence restore a female divinity); there
probably was another female figure on the left{1}. T. was probably represented
floating in the air in his chariot, not standing as Schwarz thinks.
CAVI Inscriptions: A: above the head: Τριπτολεμο[ς].
CAVI Footnotes: {1} so Corbett, but see Moore (1997): the remains beside the figure are on
the left, there is no trace on the right (according to the dr., fig. 23). Moore
says the remains, on the far left, are the start of another figure or perhaps
part of the wing of the throne, more likely the latter. Inscription in white.
CAVI Comments: Widely spaced and neat letters.
CAVI Number: 0433
