From the Art Institute of Chicago record

On one side of this vase, Dionysos is flanked by satyrs. The god moves to the right but looks back to the left. He holds up a kantharos (drinking cup) in his left hand. Both satyrs move to the right; that on the left is ithyphallic and plays a kithara. On the other side, a maenad wearing a sakkos (hat) and holding a krotala is flanked on either side by a satyr.
