CAVI Lemma: Fr. of RF cup. Dokimasia Painter{1}. First quarter fifth.
CAVI Subject: A: upper parts of figures: hair, arm, thyrsus of a maenad; satyr playing the
flutes; Dionysus seated with kantharos and thyrsus; satyr with a wineskin holds
out an oinochoe to fill the kantharos; maenad with snake and thyrsus.
CAVI Inscriptions: A: in front of the right maenad's head: see CVA, p. 25: Hartwig, following
Furtwängler, read μαι and suggested μαι[νας], but pointed out that there was no
trace of letters to the right of the maenad's head and that the existing letters
might be nonsense. Beazley pointed out (this is confirmed by Hartwig's dr.) that
there are only two letters, a lambda and a blob. K-.D. refers to CVA, Castle
Ashby, p. 25.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} so ARV[2] 1649 (tentatively) and Para. 365 and 372. Attributed to the
Brygos Painter in ARV[2] 371/16. NB: Hartwig accepted Furtw.'s att. to the
Brygos Painter and so did Beazley (still in ARV[2] 371), but on p. 1649
tentatively, and in Para. definitely, he changed to the Dokimasia Painter.
CAVI Comments: Ex Northampton, Castle Ashby. - Furtwängler's error of combining this fr.
with the Apollodoros fr. in Castle Ashby (no. 64, q.v.) was repeated by Klein,
Brunn and Hoppin, but corrected by Hartwig.
