Providence Painter

For example, he tended to faithfully follow Archaic traditions in depicting anatomical detail or clothing.

Short narrative scenes are known only from some of his larger vases, such as stamnoi and hydriai depicting groups of deities or mythical events.

Details of his paintings, such as eyes, earrings, ankles or certain plant ornaments are reminiscent of the Berlin Painter.

The Providence Painter also followed his master with the use of his distinctive symmetrical meander pattern.

But, unlike his master, the Providence painter used white ground with outline drawing on some of his smaller vases, a popular technique of lekythoi pottery.
