The boy is nude except for a chlamys thrown over his left shoulder, which is probably that of the older youth. Compare the Parthenon frieze, north side, figure No. 110.

[Sidenote: =628.=]

Sepulchral monument of Xanthippos. An elderly bearded figure is seated on a chair. He holds a foot in his extended right hand. Diminutive figures of a woman and a girl stand beside him. The girl is gazing at the foot, and raises her hands towards it, while the woman looks towards Xanthippos. She holds a bird in her right hand. It has been supposed that the foot is a votive offering, to commemorate a remarkable cure. Wolters, however, explains the object as a shoemaker's last ([Greek: kalapous], cf. _Monumenti dell' Inst._, xi.

pl. 29), and interprets it as an allusion to the trade of Xanthippos.
