Red-Figure Column Krater (Mixing Vessel): Satyrs Pursuing Maenads
The vase has a wide mouth with a flat rim and two handles on either side. The body of the vase is shaped like an inverted pear, with a wide middle that tapers towards the base. A narrow foot supports the base. The vase is predominantly black with orange designs. On the upper part of the vase, there are rows of small orange dots and lines. The main scene on the vase features four figures, two on each side, depicted in orange against the black background. The figures appear to be in motion. The two figures on the left are male and have horse-like features, and the two on the right are female. The females wear long dresses. The background of the image is grey.
