Sul Pittore di Monaco 833

The Painter of Munich 833, studied by J.Gy. Szilágyi, who attributed to him 5 vases, has always been closely related to the Ivy leaf Group. In this article it’s proposed to distinguish two different painters, the first, with the old name of Painter of Munich 833 more tied to the Attic tradition, for iconography and stylistic models, author of two amphorae (Munich 833 and tomb 170 Osteria necropolis of Vulci), the second, with the new name of the Symplegma Painter, nearer to Greek East ceramography for his stylistic models, author of three amphorae (Louvre E723, Metropolitan Museum 22.139.83 and fragments in Budapest). The Painter of Munich 833 could be an Attic Painter, near to Amasis and related , moved to Etruria during the second half of the sixth century, around 540-520 B.C.
