Note 173 — Chapter V · EURIPIDES AND VASE PAINTING
Reading edition
The following, given by Hartwig, Jahrbuch, 1892, p. 154 ff., may be mentioned as supplementing the list in Jahn’s well-known essay, Pentheus und die Mainaden, Kiel, 1841.
(1) Attic pyxis, Louvre; pub. Jahrbuch, 1892, p. 156; date 420–400 B.C.
(2) Kylix in Museo di Papa Giulio, Rome, described by Hartwig, op. cit. p. 163, who thinks it may have well been influenced by Euripides, but he sets the date of the Bakchai at 410 B.C.! I have not seen the vase nor any publication of it, but should infer from Hartwig’s description that it is older than the tragedy.
