Naucratis Painter

The Naucratis Painter was a Laconian vase painter of the mid-sixth century BC.

Naucratis was a Greek trading post (emporion) in Egypt.

Two fragments of a kylix found in the Demeter Sanctuary, Cyrene, show that the Naucratis Painter was literate, and the form of a three-stroke iota suggests, moreover, that he was a foreigner in Laconia.
