Terracotta bell-krater (mixing bowl), Late Classical, ca. 380–360 B.C., Greek, South Italian, Apulian, Terracotta; red-figure, H. 12 in. (30.5 cm), Vases, Obverse, satyr and maenad. Reverse, two youths. The representation is interesting because the maenad, asleep in an outdoor setting, recalls the pose of Ariadne when she was found on the island of Naxos by the wine god Dionysos; she had been abandoned there by Theseus
