(), of Cyzicus, a Greek painter, a contemporary
and rival of Zeuxis, flourished from 400 to 377 B. C. (Plin. Nat.
35.36.3.) He painted, partly on the spot and partly in Thebes, a skirmish of horse
which took place near Plataeae shortly before the battle of Leuctra (Plut. Pel. 25), and a picture of Scylla surrounded by fishes. The latter picture was
much praised for the beauty of the fishes, on which the artist was supposed to have bestowed
the more pains, on account of his being fond of fish. (Plut. Quaest.
Conv. 4.4.2; Polemo, apud Athen. viii. p. 341a.)
