Komos (in the Sanctuary of Dionysos[?]). On the left is part of the door of a house.

She is dressed in a himation. Around the komast's head is a wreath, over his left arm a cloak, and in his right hand (now missing) he carries a stick (part preserved). Between the two, above, is a boukranion adorned with a fillet. Preliminary sketch. Relief contour. White: studs on door; band of wreath; horn and fillet of boukranion.
