Date: ca. 430 B.C..On the neck, obverse and reverse, Dionysos, the god of wine, and his followers, satyrs and maenadsThe architectonic character of this volute-krater is as great as that of the adjacent one, but the detail is quite different. The figure work on the neck constitutes a crowning frieze. The ribbing on the body introduces a pronounced verticality, and the crisp forms of the stand establish a podium.
