Bularchos
Bularchos (from ancient Greek βούλαρχος boúlarchos ; poetically used with literal meaning "creator of the Council") is a in the Elder Pliny mentioned ancient Greek painter , the one picture battle of the magnets has painted that of the Lydian King Candaules with gold was offset. Since parts of this section are mythological in Pliny , it is not entirely clear how much of it goes back to historical facts. In the case of Bularchos, despite the figure of the legendary Kandaules associated with him, it could have been a real person.
