The new Aristophanes

Sažetak

An Athenian red-figured cup found in the excavations in the cathedral at Zadar is published here. It can be dated to c.410 BC and attributed to the painter Aristophanes. The figured decoration consists of a fine representation of the tyrannicides, Harmodios and Aristogeiton, in the tondo, and fragmentary friezes on the exterior giving a version of a sacrificial procession, no doubt to the Akropolis and in honour of Athena. The whole encapsulates the surge of pride of the Athenians in their democracy in the violent times of the late fifth century BC.
