<p>This krater (a vase for mixing water with wine) by the Walters Painter depicts a woman holding a spindle. A bearded man faces her, and a youth stands behind her with his right hand extended. The artist's drawing is known for stiff drapery folds, stylized hands, and prominent chins. The frieze showing a bull between two lions on the neck of the vase is rare on red-figure column kraters.</p><p>For the latest information about this object, <cite><a href='https://purl.thewalters.org/art/48.70' rel='external'>Column Krater with Standing Figures</a></cite>, visit the Online Collection of the Walters Art Museum.</p>
