Abstract
This paper proposes to attribute, for the first time, three Attic kyathoi to the Sappho Painter and gathers together other vases that may belong to this late black-figure workshop (end of the 6th- beginning of the 5th century BC). It further confirms through the study of figured decoration and shape that an important part of Attic kyathoi manufactured in this workshop was a legacy left by Psiax, a hypothesis already suggested for a few pieces by C. Jubier-Galinier. A study of shape makes it possible to group vases which would not be comparable on stylistic grounds alone, and it reinforces previous stylistic comparisons of figured decorations. It also points out the importance of the potter's work in the organization and understanding of Attic ceramic workshops.
