As a group of Acropolis 96 , a group of ancient Greek vase painters , the end of the v sixth century. Chr. In Athens were employed, respectively.

description

The group from Akropolis 96 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 group from Akropolis 96 within the ten thousand-part inventory of well-known Attic red-figure vases and fragments and fundamentally put their works together. First, he grouped three bowls under the name Maler von Akropolis 96 and carried four more under the name Maler von Agora P 1275 . Eugene Vanderpool , the long-time excavator at the Agora of Athens , was able to prove through his direct research that the name vase of the painter from Agora P 1275 does not belong in shape and style, whereupon Beazley agreed with this opinion and now it together with two other bowls led as a group from Acropolis 96 . He placed two more bowls in the vicinity of the group ( compare ), a third, the former name vase of the painter from Agora P 1275 , he lists as related , and Vanderpool described a fourth black varnish bowl as four other bowls found on the Agora so similar in shape, size and material that even though they are not figuratively decorated, they should be included. In the addenda ( Paralipomena ) there was another bowl from the private collection of Herbert A. Cahn . Thus, the group and its surroundings today comprise 13 bowls and bowl fragments. In all of them, only the inside of the bowl was decorated, the outside of the bowls remained covered in black.

Beazley wasn't sure if this was a group or if the works weren't just attributable to a single vase painter. The vases of the group belong in the circle of the Euergides painter .
