Herakles, in one of his Labours assigned to him by Eurystheas, is depicted on the vase’s body. The hero –easily recognizable by the lion-skin he is wearing- lifts his club with his right hand threatening an Amazon. His opponent has already collapsed on the ground and tries to protect herself with a shield.
The scene’s background is filled with vines and framed on the upper side by a triple row of black dots, while the shoulder of the vase is decorated with rays and a tongue motif.
