  • CAVI Collection: New York 14.105.10.
  • CAVI Lemma: Fragmentary BF hydria. Mastos Painter{1}. Ca. 530-520.
  • CAVI Subject: Shoulder: duel (warriors parted). Body: Heracles mounting a chariot, with Hebe; at left, Dionysus; behind the chariot, Apollo citharoedus and a woman; in front of the horses, Hermes. Predella: fight.
  • CAVI Inscriptions: Body: above Dionysus' head: [Διο]νυσος. To right of Hebe's face: ḥ[--]{2}. To right of the pair's lower bodies, facing: hε[ρακλες]{3}. To right of Apollo's kithara, above the woman's head: Απολ[λ]ον. An uninscribed woman behind the horses. In the upper right-hand corner, above the horses' and Hermes' heads: Ονετοριδες καλος{4}. To left of Hermes' legs: ḥ[ερμες].
  • CAVI Footnotes: {1} manner of Lysippides Painter. {2} what looks like a pi with curved top is probably the lower part of a heta; I see no other traces in the photo in Shapiro, unless there is a smudge at a little distance; most of the surface is gone here. {3} there is probably not enough space in front of Hebe to restore Herakles there. {4} the first sigma is given as extant in ABV; the last is written under the omicron, as the inscription runs into the margin. The photo in S. shows all letters.
  • CAVI Comments: The layout of inscriptions is in the Exekian manner.
  • CAVI Number: 5604
