Note 1033 — Chapter VIII · DIONYSOS.
Reading edition
B.M. Cat. vol. III. E 182, cf. C. Robert, Archäologische Mährchen 161. Dr Robert explains the vase as the birth of Dionysos from the well-nymph Dirce, but vase-paintings offer no analogy to the representation of a well-nymph as a figure rising from the ground.
