In the centre of the scene is a horse to left and behind him stands a figure, apparently female, wearing an outer cloak with a border of white dots and a purple stripe. She wears a fillet or wreath on her head. In her hand she appears to hold the bridle of the horse. On either side of her stands a warrior to left in full armor, with spear, helmet, and large circular shield. Purple and white are used freely for accessories. On the shoulder of the vase are figures of a cock and heart-shaped leaves. The bottom is unglazed and perforated in the centre. Object Description: | | Black-figured lekythos from Y-Z.
