CAVI Lemma: Frs. of RF oinochoe (chous). Eretria Painter. Third quarter fifth. Ca. 430 (Beazley){1}.
CAVI Subject: Unexplained subject: an open door, in front of which is a woman to right (see L.-H.'s reconstruction, fig. 70); Nike in a peplos(?); a nude hero(?){2}.
CAVI Inscriptions: Fr. a: to right of the door: Λ[--].
CAVI Footnotes: {1} not inconsistent with the Class of Athens 15,308 (Green). {2} description from CVA: fr. a: top, corner, left-hand: open door. Fr. b: part of a youth, with spear. Fr. c: platform; clothing; part of a woman. Fr. d: border. Frs. e and f: wings.
CAVI Comments: Other reconstructions are possible. On p. 207, L.-H. says the inscription, which begins with lambda, may refer to the figure of Nike: could it be an incomplete nu? Probably not an Attic gamma.
