The stirrup-krater was a Laconian specialty, the body typically black-glazed, with the ornament, if any, ususally confined to rays above the foot and decorative bands on the rim. This rare Etruscan version has five fully-armed warriors in combat on one side, and four similar warriors on the other side above a fallen figure. Both scenes are centered by a spread-winged bird flying to the right. The style has much in common with the La Tolfa Group. Compare for example the treatment of the head of the fallen warrior on this krater to that of a running deity on an amphora in the Musée d’Art et d’Histoire, Geneva, pl. 117b in M. Martelli, et al., La Ceramica degli Etruschi.
