This marvellously detailed bell krater depicts a naked, wreathed man in the centre of the obverse. Viewed in profile, this figure relaxes upon a bed of animal skins and holds a tambourine and a basket in his right hand. To the left stands a draped female wearing a sakkos and carrying a phiale and a fillet. To the right a second draped female holds a mirror in her right hand and a tambourine in her left. The figures are flanked by palmette complexes on both sides. A laurel motif runs beneath the rim and a wave pattern encircles the base.The reverse shows three heavily draped and wreathed males, reflecting a popular composition. The field is dotted with rosettes. - (AM.0034)
