Painter from Louvre E 574

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Painters of Louvre E 574 is the notname a spätkorinthisch - schwarzfigurigen vases painter who v approximately 600-575. Was active.

He was one of the leading painters of the Chimaera group , who developed his lion depictions from the style of the lions of the Columbus painter . His influence on his successors is considered to be very strong, which is why the identification of the Riehen painter as an independent painter was late due to the close stylistic proximity to his master.

The Louvre painter E 574 is named after his name vase , which is located in the Louvre in Paris under inventory number E 574 . A lion and a smaller siren are depicted on the alabastron . All other vases ascribed to him are aryballoi .

Patricia Lawrence tried to identify the painter from Louvre E 574 with the painter of the Copenhagen Sphinx, who also belongs to the Chimaera group , a painter to whom only paintings on plates are ascribed, since the image of two panther heads is almost identical on one of the painter from Aryballos attributed to Louvre E 574 can be found. It is also possible that only one aryballos was painted by the painter of the Copenhagen Sphinxes or by the Chimaera painter who gave both of them . Due to the stylistic differences of the other vases attributed to the two painters, Darrell A. Amyx considers an identification of both painters to be impossible.
