88 TONES. — CHARACTERISTICS OF BRYGOS. 
No. 39. The " intense expression " appears on the figure on this vase. 
The dotted decoration for garments is used here, and details are introduced that 
should designate the place. But inasmuch as here the picture shows a nude woman 
placing her himation on a stool, the showing of a strigil and an aryballos on the wall 
seems to have been a bit of carelessness, or indifference, on the part of Brygos ; for 

one would hardly look for a nude woman in a palaestra, — if such the implements 
are to be taken to signify. It may be, however, that they simply represent these 
objects as hung in a room of a house. The woman has a narrow eye. 
No. 40. On side A of the exterior is drawn a girl playing a flute and looking back 
as she moves forward. This attitude we saw to be the sole property of Brygos. The 
girl who dances in the interior picture is represented with short hair. The short- 
haired hetaira is also a peculiarity of our artist. 
On the exterior, side B, appears a youth leaning backward as he dances. In the 
interior picture appears a basket and a flute-case, pointing to a house scene. 
No. 41. These fragments are shown to belong to a vase by Brygos through the 
occurrence of a nude boy wine-pourer'on one of them. 
Other characteristics are the snub nose, and the reclining figures draped to the waist. 
No. 42. On the only figure preserved on this phiale the " intense expression " is 
exhibited. 
The eye of the figure is narrow, and the body hairy. 
No. 43. The " intense expression " makes its appearance in the figure of Priam, 
on side A, and particularly in the figure which is second from the left on side B. 
Another Brygos 
wine-pourer. 
o 
here is the introduction of a nude boy 
Along with these peculiarities come less personal ones. They are the representa- 
tion of figures, reclining on couches, as having disproportionately long legs (figure 
at the left on side A); the drawing of some figures with blond hair (Achilles on 
side A) ; the introduction of details to locate the scene ; ■ the doing of the hair in a 
single roll at the back of the neck (the fourth figure from the left on side A) ; the 
doing of the hair in a series of egg-shaped rolls (the second figure from the left on 
side B); the loosening of the hair; the use of the stripe with dots on one side as a 
border for garments (five cases out of twelve) ; and the use of dots as decorations for 
garments. One male figure (fourth from the left on side B) is shown with a hairy 
body. The use of stripes to decorate pillows appears on this vase.
