Wall fragment. Glaze fired reddish (drawing) and bluish (background). Max. dim. 0.105.

Kithara-player (part of neck, his head [now missing] thrown back, body, right arm and hand with plektron, left hand) to right, dressed in a chiton. All of the kithara, except the tips of the arms, remains, as well as the sash hanging down and most of the strap used to steady the instrument. Behind him, the left hand of someone holding out a phiale. At the upper right break, part of someone or something. The artist forgot to include the strings of the kithara. Preliminary sketch.
