Chimaera (chest, shoulder, most of forelegs, start of belly) to left. Below, stopped-maeander pattern with checkerboard-squares. Preliminary ... Probably early 4th century ... The subject is Bellerophon and the Chimaera, a rather rare theme in Attic red figure (see 443).

The identity of the figure is puzzling because the presence of the beard rules out the usual characters who appear in a winged context, namely Triptolemos and Hyacinth, also Bellerophon and, occasionally, Apollo (for the latter, see the namepiece of the Painter of Vienna 202, in which the god rides a griffin: ARV2 1523, 1; Addenda 385). |
