Greek black-figure kylix with a man on a kline playing a lyre

            On the central interior tondo of this ancient Greek kylix - a wide-bowled, shallow, two-handled drinking cup - is depicted a bearded man laying on a kline (couch) and strumming a lyre. A kylix very like this one rests on the table next to him, and a goat is underneath, apparently licking its hindquarters. A wine skin (?) is hanging on the wall. The tondo is surrounded by any ivy vine with berries, a symbol of Dionysus (appropriate for a drinking cup). 

Not seen here is the exterior of the cup which depicts two large apotropaic (protective) eyes bracketing a figure of Dionysus between two maenads.
