RMPB565P–Terracotta plate. Culture: Greek, Attic. Dimensions: Diam.: 7 3/8 in. (18.7 cm). Date: ca. 520-510 B.C.. Youth riding rooster Plates were favored by some of the major vase-painters, both black-figure and red-figure, during the last decades of the sixth century B.C. The tondo presented the same challenge as the interior of a cup. This young man astride a rooster touches the bird's neck with his right hand and, curiously, rests his toes on the framing circle. The meaning is not evident, but the reference undoubtedly has to do with the rooster as a love gift. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art,

RMPB1K96–Fragment of a terracotta plate. Culture: Greek, Attic. Dimensions: 2 15/16 × 2 3/8 × 5/16 in. (7.4 × 6 × 0.9 cm). Date: ca. 550 B.C.. Two male figures, one possibly the god Hermes Like the inside of a cup, the central portion of a plate required an artist to compose his subject within a circle. The verticality of the figures here suggests that Lydos provided a horizontal ground line for them. His artistic personality is evident in the breadth of his figures and the controlled execution of detail. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

RMPAX3E9–Terracotta kylix: lip-cup (drinking cup). Culture: Greek, Attic. Dimensions: H. 5 1/8 in. (13 cm). Date: ca. 530-520 B.C.. Interior, youth riding a hippalektryon (a mythical combination of a horse and a rooster) Late sixth-century vases connected with drinking occasionally have subjects that go beyond the familiar gorgons, griffins, or sphinxes. The hippalektryon belongs to this category. It is interesting to compare this piece to the fine early red-figure plate by Epiktetos showing a youth riding a rooster (The Bothmer Gallery II). Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.
