Pharos painter
The Pharos Painter was an Attic vase painter of the black-figure style around the middle of the 6th century BC. BC (560-540 BC).
The Pharos painter only painted lekyths of the so-called Sub-Deianeira form. These ovoid lekyths have a short neck under the lip of the shell. The painting was done in image fields. The painstaking painter got his emergency name from Emilie Haspels due to the multiple depiction of the cloak (φᾶρος, Pharos) shared by two female figures. A little later than the Pharos painter, the black neck class is to be assigned.
