Note: In the center a young but bearded Bellerophon runs to the right as he attacks the Chimaira, who is seen rearing up before him. Bellerophon holds in his right hand the reins of Pegasos, who rears up behind him forming a heraldic counterpart to the Chimaira. The exterior decoration is dominated by three ornamental friezes encircling the underside of the bowl. Lowermost is a row of pomegranates with double petals, followed by upright tongues painted alternately black and purple, and an uppermost frieze of rather broad upright rays.
