About this person
Apelles worked on the island of Kos in the 4th century BC, during the 112th Olympiad (332-329 BC). He painted Alexander the Great, a commission that likely fixed his place in history. Pliny the Elder, writing in Naturalis Historia, ranked him above every painter who came before or after. Almost nothing of his actual work survives, but the judgment stuck.
