Notes Drinking plays a large part in Attic vase-painting. Many of the shapes were made for the symposium, and their decoration depicts varied aspects of the gatherings. This amphora shows two groups of men, wreathed with vine leaves and because they stand firmly, probably at the beginning of the evening.
