Wall fragment, very smooth on inside. Glaze slightly cracked on outside. Max. dim. 0.10. A. Ashmead, Hesperia 35, 1966, pls. 11:5.f; 12:5.f.

The fragment preserves parts of two figures (drapery) facing, the left wearing a himation, the right a chiton. The forearm of the left person is extended, and he held something in his hand. Originally, the painter intended to have this figure holding a purse but covered the preliminary sketch with glaze so that what he holds looks like a fillet. Preliminary sketch. Red: fillet.

Not from the same vase as 589. The wall of 590 is thinner, and the glaze has no greenish cast. Ashmead (Hesperia 35, 1966, p. 33) also saw that this fragment should be kept apart.
