Black palmettes do not seem occur elsewhere on the culs of red-figured calyx-kraters, but they are known from two black-figured examples, both related to the Antimenes Painter: Syracuse, where a single palmette at each handle frames the figured composition (ABV 281, 18) and Louvre F 316 (ABV 281, 19). For the net pattern on the cul, though not reduced to a dot band as on 252, see Copenhagen, N.M. inv. 13365 by the Kleophrades Painter (ARV2 185,32; Paralip. 340, 32; Addenda 187) and Louvre G 47 by the Eucharides Painter; also Louvre CA 5950 (above, sub 249).

Robertson (Στη'λη , pp. 125--129) suggested that 1411 is an early work by the Kleophrades Painter, an attribution he has since withdrawn orally.

Glaze dull in places on outside; ... Ca. 480 B.C ... There are not very many red-figured examples of satyrs making wine, and 173 seems to be one of the earliest, preceded slightly by the scene on a bell-krater in Basel, Antikenmuseum und Sammlung Ludwig, BS 482, attributed to the Kleophrades Painter (ARV2 1632, 49 bis; Addenda 188; CVA, Basel 3 [Schweiz 7], pl. 11 [323]:2, 4); 173 seems to be the only example in which there are four satyrs by themselves.
