Courtship Scene with Dogs and Hares. Attic red-figure cup attributed to the Brygos Painter, ca. 480 BCE. Rome, Villa Giulia 12B16.

From Greek Homosexuality by K. J. Dover (Cambridge, Massachusetts: Harvard University Press, 1989). First published by Gerald Duckworth & Co. in England in 1978.

Compare Xen. Oec. 12.13f.:

‘In my opinion,’ said Iskhomakhos, ‘those who are distraught over sex, (duserōtes tōn aphrodīsiōn, ‘in love, to their misfortune, with sexual intercourse’) ‘cannot be taught to care about anything more than that. It is not easy to discover any hope or concern more pleasurable than concern for paidika ...’.


Pederastic erotic scene: Intercrural sex between a teenager and a young man. Fragment of an Attic black-figure cup, c. 550–525 BC. Paris, Musée du Louvre, F 85 Bis.
