| Reverse description | Mythological scene depicting Hypermnestra, dressed in a long chiton, seated to the left upon a rocky outcrop, her right hand raised in gesture and her left hand resting upon a hydria at her side. Before her stands Lynceus, facing right, bearing a spear over his right shoulder with his left hand raised toward her. The composition recalls the legendary Argive myth of the Danaids. The ethnic legend ΑΡΓΕΙωΝ appears in the field, identifying this as a civic issue of Argos. |
