Bowl (dinos) depicting athletes training



Bowl (dinos) depicting athletes training
Greek
Classical Period
about 430–420 B.C....
Manner of the Dinos Painter
Nude youths practice the javelin, boxing, long jump, and the discus throw. Two trainers wearing mantles and holding sticks observe them. A musician, playing a double-pipe (aulos) and wearing a sleeveless patterned tunic over a long-sleeved, similarly-patterned tunic, provides a rhythm for a javelin thrower. A cheek-strap (phorbeia) supports his instrument. Behind the musician, a starting post is painted white, probably to indicate stone.
