The vase is intact; the painting is very poor. On the left, a woman carries a sacrifice to an altar before a central herm in profile to the left. On the right, a youth in chlamys moving to the right looks back; he holds an oinochoe in his right hand. Most details were added in dilute glaze or white, now mostly worn away.
