Chicago Painter
( fl c. 460–c. 450 BC). Greek vase painter. He is named after an Attic stamnos depicting preparations for a Dionysiac ritual (Chicago, IL, A. Inst., 89.22). He was a pupil of the VILLA GIULIA PAINTER (see below), and painted all his vases in the Red-figure technique, preferring large pots, especially stamnoi, kraters and hydriai. He also decorated smaller shapes, including pelikai, oinochoai, a lekythos, a pyxis and a cup. Nearly 50 vases by him are known.
