Attic Nolan amphora in red figures

Nolan amphora, with two handles, decorated in black with red figures. A) A woman, wearing a chiton and himation that leaves free her right shoulder, offers with her right hand a Rosary to a warrior armed with a helmet and a spear and a shield that has as episema a roaring lion. The figures rest on a meander interrupted by crosses. B) Bearded virile figure in the act of leaning with the hand stretched out to a stick. (The loop and the base foot are restored).
