Eurytios Krater

Found at Cerveteri and now on display in the Louvre, the front of the krater depicts Eurytus (Eurytos) feasting Herakles.

In addition to the painting itself, several of the figures are named by accompanying inscriptions.

The back is decorated with a battle scene, possibly from the Trojan War.

Below the handles are a kitchen scene and the probably earliest depiction of the suicide of Ajax.

The lower frieze depicts herons, animals and a deer hunt.
