The Goluchow Painter was a Greek vase painter who worked at the end of the 6th century BC. Chr. In Athens worked.

The Goluchow painter was a representative of the " pioneering group " of red-figure vase painting , but can possibly be set even earlier and belongs to the generation of inventors of the style around the Andokides painter , Psiax and Paseas . He painted his vases in the new style, but still in the style of black-figure vase painting , which is why his works are rated as rather "primitive". Originally, the Goluchow painter was a representative of the black-figure style. This makes him one of a comparatively few vase painters whose works in both main styles are known. The painter, who himself did not sign and was therefore given an emergency name , was nevertheless very willing to write. For his inscriptions he used two different forms of the Greek alphabet , the Attic as well as the Ionic , which is common in the Cyclades . Therefore some researchers suspect that the Goluchow painter could be a ceramicist who immigrated to Athens. It is very likely that foreign craftsmen were involved in Attic ceramic production, and Ionic craftsmen in Athens can be found in large numbers in sculpture and architecture at this time. On the other hand, the development of the red-figure style is genuinely Attic. It received its emergency name from two jugs that are now in Warsaw, previously in Gołuchów .

The Goluchow painter decorated vases in the red-figure style after their emergence, but always remained a black-figure vase painter who, although he took over various elements of anatomical representation and poses from the red-figure pioneers, never achieved a real mastery. When it comes to black-figure vases, he is considered the first specialist in Panathenaic price amphoras . Two of the hydria he has decorated are signed by the potter Pamphaios . Some of the oinochoes he decorated belong to the Briachos class , others to the class of Vatican G 47 . Some researchers, such as Martin Robertson , argue that he is identical to the black-figure vase painter Euphiletus .
