Broken at shoulder, with upper part missing. Black graze is abraded. Incisions and drawing are hasty and careless. At rim, a zone of dots between two narrow bands. On body, a figure wearing chiton and himation and fillet in hair (krobylos), preparing to mount a chariot drawn by four horses, holding a goad in his right hand and reins in his left; one foot is in the chariot. Behind the horses, a winged figure in long drapery (indistinct); at horses' heads a siren wearing a short chiton, holding a horse's head in left hand. Below design, narrow and broad black bands. The lower two-thirds of the vase, except part of rim of foot, is solid black. White on horses' manes and tails, and wings and tails, on wings and chiton of winged figure.
