The Anagyrus Painter was a vase painter of the early Attic black-figure style in the 1st quarter of the 6th century BC. Chr.

The works of the Anagyrus painter have only been found in the Attic interior, above all in Vari (Anagyros in antiquity, hence the emergency name ), so far not in Athens itself. It is therefore assumed that he was not active in Athens and only a limited one Room supplied. In contrast to numerous other Attic representatives of black-figure vase painting, he did not paint Lekaniden , but other forms of vessels such as amphorae, kantharoi, goblets, oinochoes and plates.
