The Amasis Painter and His World (Art Ebook)
The Amasis Painter was one of ancient Greece�s greatest vase painters, yet his own name has not been recorded, and he is known today only by the name of the potter whose works he most often decorated. A true individualist in the history of Athenian painting, he produced work distinguished by its delicacy, precision, and wit.
When the Amasis Painter began his artistic career around 560 B.C., Attic black-figure vase-painting was already fully established and about to overtake Corinthian pottery in the competition for the Etruscan market. Toward the end of his extraordinarily long career�around 515 B.C. �the red-figure technique had been invented and was rapidly supplanting black-figure in fashion. By tracing the Amasis Painter�s stylistic development from his earliest vases to his latest, this book offers a survey of Attic black-figure technique at the peak of its perfection.
