One side features Dionysos and his entourage, which was a frequent subject for the Painter of Berlin 1686. Similar compositions are seen on amphorae in Wurzburg, Somerset, Munich, Paris and Bowdoin College. The other side is centered by Athena, with Hermes to her right, Herakles to her left, with the field filled with nonsense inscriptions. The same subject was employed by the painter on a neck-amphora once on the Paris market.
