Herakles being one of the more popular. Of the 204 vases attributed to the Lysippides Painter in the Beazley Archive, there are over 60 of Herakles in various forms of heroism, fighting the lion, mounting chariots with Athena, fighting Amazons (Amazonomachy), and fighting giants (Giantomachy). He is almost always shown in his lion cape, with hood resting on the back of his black hair, defined with white paint. The arms of the lion are tied around his chest (where muscles are also well defined with white lines). Of the 204 vases attributed to Lysippides P in the Beazley archives, 112 are large amphorae. These contain all variations of Amphorae, Amphora A, Amphora B, Amphora Neck, and 4 Panathenaic Amphorae. There are also 32 cups consisting of Cup A and Little Master Band Variations. The basins of many of these large cups are decorated with the face of a gorgonian. These Gorgonians are typical of the Nikostenes workshop to which, it has been argued, Lysippides was occasionally lent. Some of the other shapes that Lysippides works with are Krater, Columns, Oinchoes, Psykters, and Pyxis. These shapes have very small numbers, but many of them carry the same subjects as those of other Lysippides vases. Works Most of the Lysippides Painter's vases appear to have been traded to Italy, especially the area around Rome, Etruria. Of the 85 vases that have listed provenances, 74 were shipped to Italy and over of 50 of these to the Etruria region. The other provenances include Sicily, Egypt and Turkey, but they appear in nominal numbers. bilingual belly amphorae, painted in collaboration with the Andokides Painter Bologna, Museo Civico Archeologico bilingual belly amphora 151 Front: Dionysos between maenad and satyrs, back: Herakles and the Nemean Lion Boston, Museum of Fine Arts bilingual belly amphora 99.538 Front and back: Herakles and the Cretan bull bilingual belly amphora 01.8037 Front and back: Achilles and Ajax playing a board game London, British Museum bilingual belly amphora B 193 Front: Herakles and the Neman Lion between Athena and Iolaos, back: Ajax and Achilles playing a board game Munich, Staatliche Antikensammlungen bilingual belly amphora 2301 Front and back: Herakles at the symposion Paris, Louvre bilingual belly amphora F 204 Front: Herakles and Kerberos, back: Dionysos with kantharos between maenad and satyrs other works (selection) Bonn, Akademisches Kunstmuseum belly amphora 62b Cambridge, Fitzwilliam Museum eye-cup GR 12.1937 Front: Dionysos with Kantharos between
