Baltimore Painter

His conventional name is derived from a vase kept at the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore.

He mainly painted large format volute kraters, amphorae, loutrophoroi and hydriai.

He depicted sepulchral scenes (naiskos vases), usually depicting a naiskos on the front and a grave stele on the back, often characterised by figures in yellow-orange garments), mythological and dionysiac scenes, as well as erotes, weddings and scenes from the life of women.

Stylistically, especially in regard to vase shapes and pictorial themes, his work is very similar to that of the Underworld Painter.

The Baltimore Painter's work is characterised by rich and fine detail, especially in ornamentation.
