The Louvre F 125 group is a group of ancient Greek vase painters who worked towards the end of the 6th century BC. Chr. In Athens were employed, respectively.

Tondo of the name vase in the Louvre: Komast

The Louvre F 125 group was active around the same time as the so-called " pioneer group " of the red-figure style . The representatives of the group belonged to the early red-figure bowl painters . Like other bowl painters of this time, the painters in the group did not yet test the possibilities of the new technology to the same depth as the representatives of the pioneer group on larger vases, due to the comparatively smaller work surface - the inside and the two outside of the bowls. Nevertheless, the bowl painters also contributed to the success of the new style.

John D. Beazley recognized the style of the Louvre F 125 group within the ten thousand-part inventory of well-known Attic red-figure vases and fragments and fundamentally put their works together. In the second edition of his basic standard work Attic Red-Figure Vase-Painters , he put together six works - both more or less completely preserved pieces and fragments - of the group, this number has only been increased insignificantly since then by other researchers. The tondi (interior images) were always black-figure , the outside red-figure. The pieces from the group that have been preserved are all bilingual eye cups . Two of the bowls assigned by Beazley, as well as another bowl, which was later assigned to the group by another researcher, are signed by the potter Nikosthenes .

Beazley wasn't sure if this was a group or if the works weren't just attributable to a single vase painter.
