Title:   Red Figure Oinochoe Fragment
Category:   Pottery
Description:   Fragment from wall, mended from six pieces, preserving about half the circumference of the body, with parts of five figures. Egg and dot border below figures; start of curve to neck at top of fragment. Thin brown wash irregularly inside.
From left: draped standing figure, one foot on a stool or small chest, leaning forward, left arm resting on knee, right hand outstretched, holding an untied olive(?) wreath. A single small ball on top of the chest. Nude youth, standing facing, looking three-quarters left, playing a lyre. Nude youth seated on a stool, on drapery, right, head and shoulders bent, both hands on his knees. Facing him, part of head and shoulders of a fourth youth, kneeling or bending down. Between the seated and the kneeling figure a tall candelabrum. At the extreme right, a female figure wearing chiton, broad head band, necklace and bracelet, standing turned slightly left but looking back right, carrying a tray of fruits in her hand (bunch of grapes and two apples?) and holding the edge of her overfold with her left. Trace of something else beyond her.
The youths wear ivy wreaths with added clay berries. Added clay also for ball on box, berries of untied wreath, keys of lyre, necklace, bracelet and fruits. For the bunch of grapes dots of clay have been added unter the glaze. Drapery folds freely picked out with dilute glaze; the curly hair runs to brown.
Rather thin black glaze, dull and somewhat peeled, especially in the drawing of the seated figures.
Context:   Well.
