a fillet, and the usual cross-belt of infants. Beside the stool a fruit lies on the
ground. On the 1. is a toy cart, its shaft upright.
E 551. TREFOIL OINOCHOE. Ht. 3f in. Greece, 1869. Drawing somewhat careless.
White flowers and stem of ivy-wreaths. Gilding used for wreaths, fruits, and berries of ivy-
wreaths round the neck. Below, a strip of egg pattern.
Two boys at feast. In the centre is a table on which are three fruits, an
oinochoe, and flowers. The boy on the I. holds over the oinochoe a cantharos
in his r., as if pouring into it. The other stoops forward on the r., holding out
in both hands a flat dish. Each wears a wreath.
E 552. OINOCHOE. Ht. 2J in. Greece, 1873. Good period. Design in opaque white and
red on the black glaze (cf. vol. ii, B 682-700).
Two cocks fighting: they lean forward confronting each other, with beaks
close together, Their bodies and legs are white, with details in fine red strokes;
their combs and hackles red. The ground is shewn by a thin white line.
E 553. OINOCHOE. Ht. 2§ in. Greece, 1873. Good period. Rather worn. Design in
opaque white, blue, red and gold on the black glaze ; the details of the face and hands are in
brown ; ground-line as preceding.
A child in a blue chiton, hair knotted behind, wearing a necklace of beads
and bracelet, both gilt, moves to r., looking back and holding upright in 1. a
tympanon (red), in r. a torch (?), which has a gilt dot at the end. On r. a goose
walks to r., carrying a similar object in its beak. On 1. a plant rises from the
ground. In the field is a trefoil of dots and two single dots, all gilt.
E 554. OINOCHOE. Old No. C. 34. Ht. 6,5 in. Cyrenaica. Dennis, 1S67. Tart of
the body broken away ; but the design is complete, except that the r. leg of the youth is
wanting from the knee. Late careless drawing. The flesh of the woman has been coloured
white, with yellowish details on the red ground ; her dress has a broad border at the neck and an
upper skirt and a central vertical stripe of white connecting them, on which perhaps vermilion
has been laid ; the remainder, including her sleeves, has been painted in a colour apparently
blue, now mostly faded. The tympanon seems to have been polychrome. Below, a strip of
egg pattern.
A woman in a long chiton, jacket (?) with close-fitting sleeves, and hair
looped up with fillet, moving to r., holding in her 1. an oinochoe, in her r. a torch,
with which she beckons to a youth who follows her, snapping his fingers and
balancing a tympanon upright on his 1. arm ; from this arm a mantle flics free
behind him.

p. 29, 5 ; the upper scene is engraved Ann. dell' Inst. 1878, pi. I, p. 93 ; cf. Hartwig, Meistersch.
p. 452, note 2. Shattered, but nothing of design wanting. Finest style. Purple fillets (except
that of the Maenad), leaves of trees and ground-lines in b. Fine brown markings throughout.
Eye in developed profile type ; that of the sleeping MaBnad is indicated by a curved line below
the eyebrow. The decoration is in two friezes, which run nearly all round the vase. Above
the upper scene, a band of oblique double palmettos, continuous ; between a and b, a s rip of
a fillet, and the usual cross-belt of infants. Beside the stool a fruit lies on the
ground. On the 1. is a toy cart, its shaft upright.
