80 V.30 Proper left panel and related kouros, front
V.31 Proper left panel and related kouros, back V.32 Proper left panel. drawing by Paul Bollo, 1903 unfinished except for abrasive polishing. The point of the tool used for the tracing is like the one utilized to execute the kouros, but in the case of the boots it was applied unskillfully and made uneven lines.

Proper left panel (Figures V.30 – V.32) H. 18¾ in. (47.5 cm), W. 14¾ in. (37.5 cm), maximum H. of relief (at horse’s thigh) 1 1⁄8 in. (2.8 cm), thickness of flat bronze sheet .1 cm Description. This panel differs in size from the panel revetting the right side by some 5 millimeters. it is worked like the other one and has the same function. it also has the small holes for applying ivory inlays. an unarmed man standing in a chariot urges the team of two horses to take flight toward the left. a recumbent woman lying under, or perhaps behind, the forelegs of the rearing horses seems to be urging them on rather than protecting herself from their hooves. The charioteer, in strict profile, resembles the warrior in the central panel and wears the same short chiton filled in with dot rosettes. The garment is less ornate, as the collar, sleeves, and hem have strips of dots and small oblique strokes framed by lines; the ornamental band running down his side contains vertical and horizontal dotted hourglasses between two lines and ends with a pendant palmette. The charioteer’s hair is like that of the kouros, with a band around the locks at the level of the ears. The knuckles and nails of the hands holding the reins are traced with care. He uses a goad, from which hangs a cord, to urge on the horses: the handle is rendered in low relief, while the cord was executed with only a tracing tool. The chariot driven by the figure is similar in structure to the vehicle i am describing here, but the car belongs to the “ear-loop” type, which takes its name from the characteristic shape of its side rails (see Section ii.B). The proper right wheel is executed in very low relief, while the left one, now missing, was worked separately and inserted together with its nave in a very carefully made hole in the bronze sheet. a traced decoration of running spirals decorates the floor frame, a tongue pattern appears under the edge of the rail, The Monteleone Chariot V: Catalogue 81
