Our kylix is based on the famous Dionysus Cup. The Dionysus Cup is the modern name for one of the best known works of buying ancient Greek vase painting, a kylix (drinking cup) dating to 540–530 BC. It is one of the masterpieces of the Attic Black-figure potter Exekias and one of the most significant works in the Staatliche Antikensammlungen in Munich. The inside image, the tondo, takes up almost the entire interior of the cup. In the center, a sailing ship is depicted, traveling from right to left. The prow of the ship is decorated like an animal's head, while the rudder is clearly discernible at the rear. Within the ship is a well over life sized figure, the god Dionysus.
