The death of Aktaion is depicted on the front of this bowl. Aktaion was a hunter who witnessed Artemis, goddess of the hunt, bathing with her nymphs. Diana punished Aktaion by turning him into a stag so that his own dogs tore him to pieces. This elegant rendering of the myth-with Artemis drawing her bow and Aktaion sinking beneath the onslaught of the hounds-is one of the greatest surviving Athenian vase paintings.
