Notes | The scene on the reverse is interesting for the way in which the painter suggests depth by showing one figure behind and almost covering the other. The rider is leading an unmounted horse to his left. Similarly, at the right, the hoplite stands in front of an archer, recognizable by his bow. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
