Heschylus
Hischylos ( Greek Ἱσχύλος ) (active around 540-515 BC) was an Attic potter .
Only bowls of him are known, first he made eye bowls , then ribbon bowls . The beginning of his creative period falls in the phase of transition from black-figure to red-figure vase painting . Works from both styles have been preserved. From the black-figure phase, here he is counted among the minor masters , three signed bowls have survived. However, the vast majority of workshop production has been painted in the red-figure style. His workshop must have been large, he commissioned numerous vase painters to paint his vessels, including Epiktetos , Pheidippos , Sakonides and the Hischylos painters named after him and painters of the Cambridge Hischylos bowl .
