Reading edition

Benndorf, Gr. Sic. Vasenb. xxxi. 2; Gerhard, A.V. 177 (= Munich 584); Le Musée, ii. p. 276, Fig. 24 (b.-f. vase at Boulogne). Other examples of a blow with the left hand are: a Fragment in the Louvre (Hartwig, Meisterschalen, Fig. 31); Mus. Greg. ii. 17 (very similar to B.M. B. 271); Krause, Gym. xviii. d. 66 f.; Brussels 336. In the Benndorf vase and some others the blow seems to be somewhat downward, which is probably due to the fact that the opponent is in the act of falling.
