| Description |
"Here there is beauty: The gleam of gold, loves and ladies with soft limbs, in soft raiment, and all that is shining, easeful and luxurious: perfume, honey and roses." So J.D. Beazley, the renowned connoisseur of Greek vases, described the work of the Meidias Painter, one of the last great Athenian vase painters. |
