Classify Harmodios,Aristogeiton and Hipparchos.
Harmodios and Aristogeiton are murdering Hipparchos, the brother of the tyrant Hippias.
Hipparchos is in the middle, attacked from both sides.
At the left, Aristogeiton, identifiable by his beard, is plunging his sword into Hippparchos.
On the right, Harmodios lifts his sword over his head, ready to strike.
All three figures wear wreaths for the feast, and have their mouths open as if shouting.
