I am indebted to the authorities of the Otago Museum, Dunedin, New Zealand, for permission to publish a column-krater which they have recently acquired. The vase is unbroken, but the main scene is badly pitted; the reverse is practically undamaged. The glaze is a good lustrous black except for an area below one handle which has fired red and dark brown. There are lotus-buds on the neck above the main scene only, and rays round the base between two bands of red. The pictures are unframed, but a third red line runs round the vase to serve as a ground line for the figures.

2 ARV 370–2. Dionysos; for the pose, cf. No. 5; for the himation, Nos. 4, 5, 9, 21, 28; for the beard, Nos. 4, 9, n. 22. The satyr on the obverse; for the line of the hip, cf. Nos. 7 and 23; for the right hand, No. 7 (the woman on B); for the line round the ankle, Nos. 7 and 13. The satyr on the reverse has a strong family resemblance to the satyrs on no. 11. For the general pose, except for the arms, cf. No. 4 (the left-hand youth on B); for the anatomy, Nos. 5, 9, 11, 19. The attribution is confirmed by Beazley; Paralipomena 901, to ARV 370–2; ‘Pig painter, add as No. 10 bis the column-krater Dunedin’.
