description: "The C Painter was one of the most important Attic black-figure vase painters. His works date to circa 575–550 BC.\nHis conventional name was allocated by the archaeologist John Beazley. The C stands for \"Corinthianising\", a reference to the strong influence of Corinthian vase painting on the artist. He was successor to the Comast Group and used the relatively old-fashioned range of vessel shapes preferred by that group, including lekanis, tripod kothon and skyphos. In contrast, he also painted quite innovative lekythoi with pronounced shoulders, although the more conservative Deinaeira type was still in use by some workshops at his time. The C Painter was the first Attic vase painter to paint cups without an offset lip, the Merrythought cup."
