PREFACE 
With  the publication of this second fascicule of the Corpus  Vasorum  Antiquorum for 
the J.  Paul Getty Museum,  the catalogue of the Attic  black-figured vases in the Bareiss 
Collection is complete. The volume focuses primarily  on the smaller closed vessels and drink
ing cups. It demonstrates very clearly, however, that size is no factor in the determination 
of quality.  The  consistent, confident taste that distinguished the selection of shapes and 
representations in the larger black-figured vases in the Bareiss Collection is equally apparent 
among these smaller vessels. 
As  the experiences of the past year have proven,  a catalogue text can be complete at 
only a certain moment in time, for  an important vase collection is a dynamic entity that 
never ceases to grow and change. During the months that this manuscript was in preparation, 
seven new fragments of the Nikosthenic pyxis  86.AE.143  [pi.  72, 1-2)  were identified. 
These have now  been joined  with the original large fragment  and their descriptions are 
included in the entry. And  by means of fragment  exchanges with the Musee du  Louvre, 
the black-figured fragment  of a Nikosthenic  neck-amphora rim [86.AE.186)  published in 
fascicule 1, plate 38, 4, has been rejoined with the majority of the vase in the Louvre.  In 
return for  this and several other red-figure fragments,  the Getty Museum  has received 
joining fragments of three kylikes  that will  be included in later fascicules devoted to the 
Bareiss Collection of red-figure material. Since these joins were made by scholars before the 
appearance of the Corpus fascicules, we are hopeful that there will be more discoveries and 
exchanges forthcoming  as the Bareiss Collection becomes available to a wider audience. 
The Department  of Antiquities  is grateful to Andrew J.  Clark for  his dedicated work 
on  the  black-figured vases in the Bareiss Collection and to Dietrich  von Bothmer and 
Mary  B. Moore for their indispensible guidance and support during the preparation of these 
first  volumes.

INTRODUCTION 
This  fascicule, the  second of two  devoted  to  Attic  black-figured vases from  the 
collection of Molly  and Walter Bareiss, includes the following  shapes: oinochoai, 
lekythoi, pyxides, an exaleiptron, an epinetron, kyathoi, a mastoid cup,  skyphoi, 
a cup-skyphos, cups, a fragment  from  a closed vase of undetermined  shape,  and 
lids from neck-amphorae. The first fascicule published amphorae, neck-amphorae, 
kraters,  a  stamnos,  hydriai, and  other  fragments  of undetermined closed shapes 
from  the  Bareiss Collection. The neck-amphorae  lids should have been  included 
in the previous fascicule, but space  limitations required that they be reserved for 
this volume. 
For comments  on the format  of the entries, measurements  given for the  vases, 
profile drawings, attributions to painters, and the exhibition and publication history 
of  the  collection,  the  reader  is advised to  consult  the  introduction to  the  first 
fascicule.  Attributions not  otherwise  credited  are  my  own. Wherever possible, 
the approximate capacity of each vase has been measured, and the results given in 
liters and in the estimated ancient equivalent, expressed in choes, kotylai, or kyathoi: 
l  metretes (39.391) — 12 choes; 1 chous (3.283 1) =  12 kotylai (1 kotyle, 0.27361) = 
72 kyathoi (1 kyathos, 0.0456 1). The equivalents used are  based on those  calcu
lated by  Friedrich  Hultsch  (Griechische und romische Metrologie, 2nd  edn.  [Berlin, 
1882], pp. 101-104,107-108,703. RE,  ser. 1, vol. 3, pt. 2, cols. 2526-2527 ["Chous"]), 
even though it cannot be proved that these were the standards  current in Archaic 
Athens.  Views  of the  undersides  of the  complete Siana cups and cups of type  A 
are  given to illustrate their overall composition. 
I  am  grateful  to  Marion  True,  Curator,  Department  of Antiquities,  for  the 
opportunity to continue the publication of the Attic black-figured vases from  the 
Bareiss Collection,  for reviewing  the  text,  and for her  guidance in bringing this 
fascicule to completion. I am also indebted to David Ebitz, Head, Department of 
Education  and Academic  Affairs,  who released me  from  other  responsibilities so 
that I could finish  the  manuscript. 
In the writing of this fascicule, Mary  B. Moore, Professor of Art History, De
partment  of Art, Hunter College, City University of New York, was particularly 
instrumental. As chairman of the  U.S.A.  Committee on the  Corpus  Vasorum  An-
tiquorum, she  accepted  the  manuscript  for  publication and  vetted  the  text,  read 
the  galley proofs, and made valuable suggestions for revisions. 
In  the  introduction to  the  first  fascicule, I spoke of the  long-standing  interest 
of Dietrich von Bothmer, Chairman, Department of Greek and Roman Art, The 
Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, in the collection of Molly  and Walter
