 This depiction takes after a neck-amphorae version done by Exekias in multiple ways.While there is no saying that Lysippides is the painter, the vase is grouped with his work stylistically in the way it takes after Exekias and that the work narrows all the attention on Herakles' role in the battle rather than the lion's.These elements are strongly associated with the work of the Lysippides Painter.
