Euphranor

Euphranor (yfrā`nər), fl. 364 B.C., Greek painter and sculptor from Corinth. His most famous paintings were in the Stoa of Zeus at Athens—A Cavalry Charge between the Athenians and Boeotians at Mantinea and Theseus on one wall and the 12 great gods on the opposite. His statues, executed in metal or marble, were praised by Pliny for symmetry and dignity. Among them were Paris and Leto with Apollo and Artemis. A nude male statue in bronze, found in a sunken ship off Antikythera, has been identified by some scholars as his Paris (Athens).

Euphranor

(born c. 390 BC, Greece—died c. 325, Athens?) Greek sculptor and painter active in Athens. The only surviving work identified as his is the fragments of a colossal marble statue of Apollo (c. 330 BC) found in the agora at Athens. Other recorded (but lost) works suggest that he was one of the foremost Athenian artists of the mid 4th century BC. He also wrote treatises on proportion and colour.
