  • AVI Web: https://www.avi.unibas.ch/DB/searchform.html?ID=3796
  • AVI Record Number: 3619
  • CAVI Collection: Florence 1 B 6 and B 7.
  • CAVI Lemma: Frs. of small RF cup (AMA Group). Skythes (?). Amasis, potter (?). Third quarter sixth. Ca. 530.
  • CAVI Subject: Int.: Head and foot of a satyr, dancing.
  • CAVI Inscriptions: Starting to right of head and continuing to left of foot, up and down, in orange approximating incision or reserved (Cohen): Αμα[---] and ε[---]{1}.
  • CAVI Footnotes: {1} Αμα[σις(?)] | ε[ποιεσεν(?)], Beazley. But see now Mertens. On the question of the style, see AttScr.
  • CAVI Comments: New frs. added prove the existence of the potter's signature of Amasis and an attribution to Skythes; see Mertens. Hence not all vases potted by Amasis are by the Amasis Painter (Isler). It is clear that the potter Amasis worked for RF at end of his career. - Moore (1997), 80 n. 8: ref. to Mertens in Papers ... (1987) 173-75: she discusses 2 fragmentary cups in Florence from the AMA Group and 2 frs. in the Cahn collection, Cahn 696 and 695. [The Florence frs. are: the present vase and A, B 1, the first RF, the second bilingual. The second is uninscribed.] Cahn att. his frs. to Skythes; the inscriptions are: 696: ]μασις. 695: [--]ς εποιει. Mertens accepts the attribution and thinks Florence A, B 1 [which Beazley says is near Florence 1 B 6 which he thinks probably has the sig. of Amasis] may also be by Skythes.
