Sessile kantharoi are only rarely decorated in red figure. The shape is most commonly decorated with panels inspired by textile, feather, floral and other patterns, the so-called Saint-Valentin vases, named after a kantharos found at La Motte Saint-Valentin. For a red-figured sessile kantharos by the Shuvalov Painter, to whom the present cup may also be attributed, see pl. 36 3/4 in Rohde, Corpus Vasorum Antiquorum, Deutsche Demokratische Republik, Staatliche Museen zu Berlin, Antikensammlung, Band 1.
