AVI Record Number: 3605
CAVI Collection: Florence 81,600.
CAVI Lemma: RF cup. Unattributed. Last quarter sixth.
CAVI Subject: Int.: Hephaestus with his hammer and a flower [but see below] in a winged chair. A: youths bringing a bull to sacrifice; at left, a youth with two large knives; at right, a youth with a stick precedes{1}. B: three youths preparing their horses for a race; at right, a trumpeter.
CAVI Inscriptions: Int.: around the figure: an illegible inscription. A: along the lip, an illegible inscription [i.e. nonsense?]. Under the foot, Gr.: Α.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} behind his raised right arm is a reserved rectangle, the longer side vertical: taken by Magi with Beazley as a tablet to register the names of victors, but the `tablet' has no markings whatever.
CAVI Comments: Cf. Berlin 2237 by the Ambrosios Painter, q.v.; there Cook interpreted the `hammer' as a double axe and the figure as Dionysus, but Beazley and others do not follow him; see Matheson (1994), 351 and n. 22.
