Terracotta kylix (drinking cup) ca. 500 Attributed to a painter of the Thorvaldsen Group Interior, warrior and boyExterior, athletesThe interior presents a particularly fine but also sober depiction of a warrior; he grasps a spear and is accompanied by a boy, probably an attendant. The artist carefully articulated the elements of the warrior's dress and armor; by putting the helmet to one side, he could render the pensive, downcast face. The exterior shows more animated scenes—boxing, wrestling, and preparing to throw the Terracotta kylix (drinking cup). Greek, Attic. ca. 500
