( fl c. 520–c. 510 BC). Greek vase painter. Formerly called the Cerberus Painter (after a plate, Boston, MA, Mus. F.A., 01.8025, showing Herakles Leading Kerberos), he was a minor Athenian Red-figure painter, primarily of plates and small vases (e.g. cups, an alabastron and a standlet); he also decorated several votive plaques of Athena (Athens, N. Archaeol. Mus., Acropolis 2583–5, 2587–9, 2591) in Black-figure on white ground. On some, flesh is emphasized by outline as well as a second white, while one preserves his unique signature: ‘one of the paintings of Paseas’.
