PLATE XX
Eos and Kephalos
Eos, suddenly approaching Kephalos from behind, has laid her left arm across his shoulders, and with her right hand has grasped him firmly by the wrist, thus endeavouring to check his flight as he starts away in fear; at the same time she spreads her wings, and with an upward glance indicates whither she wishes to convey him. From a red-figured kylix signed by Hieron (early fifth century B.C.), in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston (photograph). See pp. 71-73.
