CIRCA LATE 4TH CENTURY B.C.

The compostion of the decoration, in particular the Erotes, is close to vases attributed to the Volcani Group, a group of Tarentine vase painters who then moved to Rome at the end of the 4th Century B.C., see. J.R. Green, "Gnathia and other Overpainted Wares," in Céramiques hellénistiques et romaines, E. Gény, ed., vol. III, Paris, 2001, p. 79. For an example with an eros dressed as a charioteer driving a biga drawn by hounds within a procession of erotes, see J. M. Padgett et al., Vase-Painting in Italy: Red-Figure and Related Works in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, pp. 204-206, no. 130.
