| Reverse description | Apollo and Artemis depicted standing face to face in a divine encounter. Apollo stands left, nude, with his left leg crossed behind his right in a relaxed contrapposto pose; he extends his right hand forward holding a bow and retains an arrow (?) in his lowered left hand, his gaze directed rightward toward his sister. Artemis stands right, clad in a long chiton, turning her head left to face Apollo, and extends her right hand holding a branch (?). The composition reflects the Delphic religious context, emphasizing the twin deities associated with the sanctuary. The ethnic legend ΔΕΛΦΩΝ appears in the field. |
