Oionokles Painter (Attic vase painter, active ca. 470 BCE)
|
Note: The Oionokles Painter worked as a vase painter in Athens ca. 470 BCE. He decorated a wide range of vase shapes in the red-figure technique, but he appears to have specialized in neck-amphorae. The favorite themes of the Oionokles Painter were scenes of pursuit and Dionysiac scenes. He painted relatively few mortals or scenes of everyday life. Action and a sense of humor often characterize his work. As with most ancient artists, the true name of the Oionokles Painter is unknown; he is identified only by the stylistic traits of his work. Scholars have named him after kalos inscriptions on several of his vases, praising the beautiful youth Oionokles. |
