  • AVI Record Number: 3541
  • CAVI Collection: Florence 3790.
  • CAVI Lemma: BF hydria. From Orvieto. Manner of Lysippides Painter. 530-520.
  • CAVI Subject: Shoulder: Heracles and Cycnus. Body: Peleus and Thetis in chariot (The Wedding, according to Shapiro).
  • CAVI Inscriptions: Body: to left of the heads of the pair in the chariot: Θυονε{1}. Διονυσ̣ος. Second pair: to right of their faces: Θετις. Between spokes of a wheel: Πελευς. Behind the horses, Apollo playing the lyre: Απολ[λ]ον. Facing Apollo, the pair of Heracles and Athena: to left of their faces: hερακλες, retr.{2}. To right of their legs: Αθεναιας. Hermes: hερ{ε}μες. Between the horses' legs: Αφροδιτε. Between the two figures at right: Ανφιτριτε, retr. Under the foot, Gr.: ligature of alpha and D-shaped rho.
  • CAVI Footnotes: {1} Körte identified Thyone with Ariadne, but Beazley points out she is Semele. {2} because of glare I could only see: hερακ̣... , retr.
  • CAVI Comments: In ARV[1] attributed to the Andokides (i.e., Lysippides) Painter, in ABS and ABV to his manner. Recalls Exekias' North Slope krater (Beazley). - On Thyone-Semele, mother of Dionysus, see Shapiro, pp. 88 and 92. Phi with a long hasta. Threatte (1980) and (1996) has a different reading for Hermes: hερεμ̣[ς, adding that CVA, p. 12, gives the inscription incorrectly as hερμες); he considers hερεμ̣ε[ς a less likely reading. This is most fully discussed in vol. i. T. makes the error of thinking the vase is by the Lysippides Painter himself. - Rho once with extended vertical, as on the North Slope krater by Exekias.
