Fragmentary Attic Black-Figure Neck Amphora (comprised of 34 fragments)

Partially reassembled neck amphora. A: Apollo with kithara standing to right; facing him on either side, two female figures. Apollo's hair is bound up in a krobylos and he wears a patterned himation (added red, and incised crosses). The women also wear heavily patterned garments. The pair standing before the god each extends a palm before him. B: Departure of a warrior. Only part of the shield, leg and spear survive of the warrior. To the left, old man with a staff (white hair, added red on his himation), and to the right, a woman (added red patterning on her himation).
On the neck, band of addorsed lotus and palmette. Red and black tongues on the shoulder. Under the figures, band of upward-pointing encircled lotus buds. Under the handles, four palmettes and a hanging lotus.
