Decorated with erotic scenes on each side; a copulating couple is flanked by running nude males and standing draped male onlookers. As C. Johns informs (pp. 117-120 in Sex or Symbol? Erotic Images of Greece and Rome, 1982), erotic scenes feature most prominently on drinking vessels and are connected to symposia. While the invited guests were all male, female consorts (hetairai) and dancers provided entertainment and sexual services for the men. It is therefore not surprising that such scenes appear on vases that were used in this context. Though dancers are more common around the erotic scene, cloaked bystanders do occur elsewhere as well, cf. a Little Master cup in the Antikenmuseum der Universität Leipzig, inv. no. T 3359.
