Douris (vase painter)
"Douris" was a greek vase painter who flourished in the 5th century BCE known for his red-figure pottery though he also utilized the black figure technique. His signature has been found on 40 vases, and more than 200 have been attributed to him. He seems to have been a popular artist of his time: a cup by Onesimos (vase painter) (Bowdoin Coll. A.,1930.1) depicts a woman holding a skyphos bearing Douris's name, also a work by the Triptolemos Painter (Berlin, Staatl. Museen Preuss. Kultbes., 2286) - who might have been his pupil- has the Douris signature, probably to increase its' value.
