The pose of the seated woman with her head angled forward in a pensive attitude recalls 5th century B.C. depictions of Penelope, the wife of Odysseus, such as the Greek marble found at Persepolis and the Attic red-figured skyphos from Chiusi, the name-piece of the Penelope Painter (see nos. 2b and 16 in Hausmann, "Penelope," in LIMC).

The style of the painting on this pelike recalls the Manner of the Sabouroff Painter and his followers the Painter of Munich 2363 and the Trophy Painter.
