also extensively painted on the underside.
Diameter 11 inches. Continental Decorative Arts

Estate of Frell Albright, Houston.

Note:
This patera was attributed to the Painter of Vatican 24 by A.D. Trendall in personal correspondence, March 15, 1991. Trendall notes the similarities to published parallels in determining this attribution, both in terms of the seated female illustrated in the interior of the patera, as well as the female heads on the A and B sides of the underside.
