(flourished c. 350–325 BC, Greece) Greek painter of the late Classical period, known for two containers, both dated 340–330 BC. Both are painted in the so-called Kerch style, named for the area north of the Black Sea where many such vessels were excavated. Characterized by slender, mannered forms, elaborate decoration, and polychrome effects, the Kerch style is thought to be the last major style of Attic red-figure pottery.
