Death of Agamemnon

	This red figure krater from Athens (c. 470 B.C.) shows Aigisthos grabbing Agamemnon by his hair as the king (covered by a net) falls wounded. To the left (not in this view) is Clytemnestra who wields an axe; to the right is a female figure -- perhaps Electra? -- crying out at the murder and, (again not in this view) Cassandra fleeing the scene.
This red figure vase painting shows Orestes (labelled on the pot) killing Aigisthos to avenge his father's death.
