A CAMPANIAN RED-FIGURED BELL-KRATER

The obverse with a seated Oscan warrior with feathered helmet, shield and spear, a woman standing beside an altar holding a branch, and another wearing a white cloak and holding a mirror. The reverse with two women wearing voluminous himations, one seated on a folding stool. Trendall describes the CA Painter as the chief artist in a large workshop base in Cumae, who was particularly fond of ritual scenes, as shown here, with women and occasionally an Oscan warrior grouped around a stele.
