Beazley, named both the vase and the painter after our city. Other vases by this painter are in New York, Vienna, Paris, and Copenhagen. Front: The scene on this side may represent Hebe, the daughter of Zeus and Hera, on her way to meet her future husband, Herakles. Back: On this side of the vase, drunken revelers return from a symposium, a drinking party at which wine was served from huge vessels like this one. --- RELATED WORKS --- CITATIONS Neils, J.
