CAVI Lemma: RF amphora. From Vulci. Diogenes Painter. First quarter fifth.
CAVI Subject: A: three draped youths conversing with a draped boy (the third figure from the left), offering him a flower and a wreath. B: Dionysus between two satyrs.
CAVI Inscriptions: A: to left of the left-hand figure: Αντιμενον, retr. To left of the second figure from the left: Θρασυκλειδες, retr. To left of the boy: Διογενες, retr. Above the head of the right-hand figure: καλος. B: one satyr is inscribed: καλος. Under the foot, glaze Dip.: ΟΣ with three-stroke sigma. Gr.: = alpha with vertical bottom stroke.
CAVI Comments: Diogenes is considered by Robertson a kalos-name referring to the boy depicted (tag-kalos); the other instances of this kalos-name are listed by him. This vase seems the earliest occurrence of the name, a fact consistent with his depiction as a boy. Differently, Beazley: "Diogenes seems to be the boy, and the kalos may go with the Diogenes" (ARV[2] 248; on p. 1574 described as tag-kalos). I rather think each figure is inscribed, the fourth having the kalos.
