Red-Figure Column Krater (Mixing Vessel): Satyrs Pursuing Maenads

Two satyr-maenad pairs rush across this vase, similar but not identical to one another. The leading satyr is balding and infibulated, the trailing one more hirsute; the leading maenad carries a thyrsos, the trailing one two torches. On the reverse, a stock scene appears, with three youths standing, as if in conversation.
