Pan Painter
( fl c. 480–c. 450 BC). Greek vase painter. Active in Attica, he was associated with the MANNERIST WORKSHOP (see above) and named by Beazley after the picture on the obverse of a Red-figure bell krater (Boston, MA, Mus. F.A., 10.185) showing Pan in Pursuit of a Young Goatherd. More than 160 vases have been attributed to him, one of the earliest being a psykter in Munich (Staatl. Antikensamml., 2417), usually thought to date from the 480s BC, although dates as late as 460 BC have been suggested. The end of his career is represented by a bell krater (Palermo, Mus. Reg., V778) and some other vases with less generous use of relief lines.
