Neck fragment with two rings between figures and ornament below. Glaze pitted and abraded in places. P.H. 0.125.
Two women (lower drapery, feet of each) facing, each wearing a chiton, the left holding a fringed scarf. Below, on front: upright encircled palmettes (one-half, one, one-half); on back, inverted rays. White: fringe.
For the combination of palmettes on one side of the neck and inverted rays on the other, see Vienna 2027 by the Washing Painter (ARV2 1127, 11; Addenda 332) and Tübingen S./10 1543 (CVA, Tübingen 4 [Deutschland 52], pl. 5 [2522]:4--6) attributed by Böhr (CVA, pp. 22--23) to the Painter of Louvre MN 558. 88 is contemporary with these but seems to be by another hand.
