The rarity of marine mythology in South Italian vase-painting contrasts greatly with Athenian practice. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

Attic Red-Figure Psykter. Attributed to Smikros, painter about 510 B.C. The psykter is a vessel used for cooling wine at a symposium. Placed in a large bowl of ice-cold water, the bulbous upper section - decorated here with youths in the gymnasium - would be visible to drinkers. Many of the figures on this vase are identified with inscriptions. One nude youth ('Ambrosios') seen from behind scrapes his body with a strigil. To the right, a youth with his hair tied up in a bun folds a mantle ('Euthydikos'). Around the rest of the vase are four pairs of courting couples. One draped youth holding a hand to his head ('Melas') leans on his staff, looking at a heavily draped boy who walks to the right, holding a lyre and looking back ('Antias'). Another draped youth ('Euphronios') leans on his staff as he reaches for the chin of the boy facing him ('Leagros kalos').

There is a balance between light and dark in the areas of glaze and reserve as well as within the panels. The ivy and lotus-palmette ornaments embellish the upper part of the vase, while the zone of rays emphasizes the bottom of the body. The stateliness in the representation is most appropriate to the subject of Herakles' introduction into Mount Olympos. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.
