Interior, satyr leaning on a pillar Exterior, obverse, woman holding a wreath; reverse, nude youth by a pillar This cup was painted by a follower of the Amykos Painter and may represent the minor mode of the Creusa Painter, one of the leaders of the second generation of Lucanian artists. The pillars, nude youth, and wreath suggest an athletic context. The satyr appears relaxed but commanding.
