DISTRIBUTION OF CORINTHIAN POTTERY 193
floral ornaments (cf. fig. 86 and the side-ornaments on the amphora in Louvre
(C.V.A. pi. 1,4); and on the lekythos pi. 53, 7 we have precisely the same
figure running between a group of lions that we have in the Gorgon dinos
(C.V.A. pi. 17, 2). But the lions alone
are enough to show that the two groups
are inseparable. The chief differences be-
tween them are (1) that the drawing in the
Nessos group is freer and less exact; (2) that
in this group much more white is used.1 A
remarkable feature is the use of white for
dots at the corners of the eyes, and round
the edges of the rosettes. These dots on
rosettes occur on two other vases which are
in many ways very closely connected with
the foregoing: Lekythos in Geneva (Hirsch).
Silen riding on ithyphallic mule, which bites
the arm of a maenad who runs in front.
Above the panel, cable. Professor Beazley
showed me photographs of this vase. Olpe
With trefoil mOUth in Oxford 505, from Fig. 87. From an Attic amphora
Laurium (J.H.S. 1904, 296: 'Corinthian'). (p. 192,no. 6).
Ram; floral. Rosettes above. The series is
completed by a number of closely related pieces, of which the following may
be mentioned:
Olpai. Louvre M.N.B. 2035, from Cleonae. Galloping rider. Taranto, youth on
horseback looking back at a man. Found with the Comast cups nos. 15,16 p. 194.
British Museum B 103, 20, from Naukratis. PI. 53,5. B. 102, 23. PI. 53, 3. (Prinz,
Naukratis 73: 'Corinthian'. Cf. Walters p. 82); 86. 4. 1. 1171. PI. 53,6. Marseilles,
Vasseur pi. 10, 12. itaoe-'s head. Louvre A 474, from Rhodes (Pottier pi. 16).
Sphinx; floral ornament. Cf. also Salzmann, Nec. de Camirus pi. 36. Copenhagen,
C.V.A. iii H pi. 100, 3. Sphinx. Paris (?) Morin-Jean 161, fig. 187. Lion. U)uvt< t 81
Amphoriskoi. Berlin 3983. Sphinxes, floral ornament, eagle (Rumpf, Chalk. Vas. 155,
b). Berlin inv. 4874. Lions, sirens, goat, cocks, and another bird (Rumpf, 155, c).
Athens 546, from Megara. Cocks, floral ornament, copied from the Corinthian type
shown in fig. 62 f. (Rumpf, 154, a). Rumpf regards all these vases as 'Boeoto-
Chalcidian' but they are certainly Attic. Cf. also British Museum 64. 10. 7. 160.
Floral chain (style as in pi. 52, 3).
A curious group which may really be Boeotian is made up of two amphoris-
koi in Bonn (Rumpf, 155, d,e.), and a lekythos in Paris (Rev. Arch. 1899, i, 8;
A.M. 1922, 60 fig. 1; Rumpf, 155, g): Herakles and Halios Geron; helmet
between lions.
1 White is used for the inner row of wing-feathers on several of these vases (certainly on 2-4 and 7-8).
