Biography: Although the true name of the artist in unknown, the creator of multiple vases that are stylistically similar goes by a pseudonym. Known as the Acheloos Painter, his name was taken from a vase that shows a battle between the river god Acheloos and Herakles. He created a number of hydriai and amphorphae style vases in Athens from 525 to 500 B.C. A member of the Leagros Group, he was one of the last artists to make large, black-figure pottery.
