Inscribed "Hipparchos is beautiful".
Decorated with a lovely pattern of diminishing palmettes, this vase may bear a tribute to Hipparchos, the son of the tyrant Peisistratos. Hipparchos was assassinated by two conspirators, Harmodios and Aristogeiton.
Attic black-figure, white-ground alabastron; ca 510 BCE
