CAVI Lemma: RF alabastron. From Greece{1}. Aischines Painter. Second quarter fifth.
CAVI Subject: A: a woman with a taenia and an alabastron; behind her, a chair. B: a woman
with a box and taenia{2}.
CAVI Inscriptions: B: the woman is inscribed: καλε, retr.{3}.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} so stated in Sotheby (1921), no. 239. {2} so Smith, who calls the woman
on B a servant. Beazley reverses the order of A and B, perhaps because the
`servant' is called καλε. Beazley also gives the woman on his side A an
alabastron instead of a taenia; that may be an error. {3} note that she is
facing left.
