The New York Nessos painter got its emergency name after a neck amphora in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York . Heracles with the centaur Nessus is shown on the vase . He was a representative of the so-called "black and white style". Like other representatives of this style, he depicted the most important scenes under one of the handles. Because of the incisions used, this style has been called the semi -black-figure style since the research of John D. Beazley .
