Wall fragment. Max. dim. 0.059.
At the left, someone carrying a loutrophoros-amphora in the crook of his left arm (upper part of arm; part of body, neck and one handle, start of other at far left, of vessel) and before him the right forearm and hand of someone grasping a staff. Around the neck of the vessel is a fillet. Relief contour (except for staff and arm). Red: fillet.
If the loutrophoros held were of the hydria variety, one would expect to see part of the upright handle on the shoulder. For loutrophoroi painted on loutrophoroi as a means of identifying the type when only a fragment remains, see 78.
