"description": "Broken from the rim and bowl of a drinking cup, this fragment shows a woman looking back and moving away from a bearded man. Because she holds a dolphin, she is likely a Nereid, or sea nymph. The man may be her father, Nereus, although he is usually shown with white hair and beard (appropriately, for he is often called \u201cOld Man of the Sea\u201d).",
