- Description
-
Pottery: red-figured chous.
Two boys at play. One on the right has apparently just pushed with his right hand the other, who falls to left upon his right arm, his left leg bent under him; each holds a net purse in his left, and wears across his chest the usual cross-belt with ornaments, and a fillet on his head.
Surface damaged with fire. Graceful period, but careless drawing. Eye in profile. Below, a strip of egg pattern.
