Abstract

I show here a picture of a ram being sacrificed. His throat is being slit. This picture, a close-up of a painting on a fragmentary vase now housed at the Getty Museum in Malibu, was noted by Gloria Ferrari Pinney in a brief essay that she wrote in response to an essay of mine. Both essays are posted in Classical Inquiries 2020.07.31. My new essay here is an extension of my earlier essay, which concerned another picture of a sacrificial ram. In this new essay, I hope to correlate the meanings of the two pictures.
