The Athena Painter was an Attic black-figure vase painter, active about 490 to 460 BC. His speciality were white-ground ''lekythoi'' painted in the black-figure style. His pseudonym, for his real name is unknown, refers to his preference for Athena in his choice of subjects. He was one of the last generation of black figure technique painters.〔((ArtNet): Athena Painter )〕 The Athena Painter, along with the Theseus Painter, continued the tradition of painting large standard ''lekythoi''. His black-figure work was of high quality. Apart from ''lekythoi'', he mainly painted ''oinochai''. Some archaeologists identify him with the red-figure Bowdoin Painter.〔Haspels, 1936. ''Attic Black-figured Lekythoi''. (Cambridge University Press), pp. 157-60.〕 They may, however, simply have worked in the same workshop. His workshop was one of the production centres that developed the painting of white-ground ''lekythoi'', which was to become especially important in the 5th century BC. ==References and sources== ;References ;Sources *Beazley, J.D.
