Title:   Red Figure Oinochoe
Category:   Pottery
Description:   The lower part only preserved, mended from many pieces. The highest preserved point gives the start of the upward curve of the neck. Fragment of border missing. Foot badly chipped. Plump body; shallow echinus ring foot. Lower border, egg and dot. Palaestra: at right, facing left, a nude male figure holding a pair of javelins by his side. Weight on right leg, left knee bent; his bent right arm raised; the javelins in his left hand. His body from the waist missing. Before him a sitting dog, watching him. At center, a male figure, frontal, with head turned to his left. Most of the face and part of the neck and chest lost. The bent right arm raised to a tall staff; the weight on the left foot; the right knee bent. His himation, worn over his left shoulder and arm, has a black border and decoration. At left, a nude athlete striding right with left foot advanced. Part of his chest and of his left foot lost. His arms are raised before him, a haltere in each hand.
Relief contour: partial on the two right-hand figures; almost complete on the left-hand. Dilute glaze: the dog's coat, and the folds of the himation. Preliminary sketch: traces on right arm and to left of central figure; and on arms, body and leg of left-hand figure.
Clay pinkish-buff. Glaze lustrous in part but fired chocolate brown in places. Much worn on lower part of vase. Fairly thick wash inside, which misses some places.
