Extract

Various traditions about the origin of painting have come down to us from antiquity. Pliny, to whom we owe the most detailed accounts, is surprised that the careful Greeks contradict themselves so much. Yet actual facts underlie these contradictions. The claim of the Egyptians to have invented painting six thousand years before the Greeks is rejected as idle boasting by Pliny, and we agree as far as the number six thousand goes; but we recognise to-day that the Egyptians were painting some thousands of years before the Greeks. Aristotle puts beside the Egyptians as inventor of painting in Greece, Euchir, a relation of Daedalus—that is, the generation of Theseus. To-day we can say that the excavations of the last fifty years in Crete have justified him beyond his wildest fancy by revealing frescoes of the second millennium B.C. If another tradition gives names like Cleanthes, Aridices, or Telephanes as the first painters, this means that the oldest artist-signatures known to Hellenistic scholars gave these names. But these are all primitive beginnings, non-Greek, pre-Greek, and-archaic.

32 Pseudo-Andocides does not suggest that Agatharchus was then a very old man; he might well have stressed this, had it been true, in order to make Alcibiades' procedure appear yet more brutal. The Scholion to Demosthenes, XXI, 147 (Overbeck 1125) says that Agatharchus was caught in flagrante delicto with a pallake of Alcibiades, and Alcibiades would hardly have feared a very aged rival. Plutarch, (Alcibiades 16Google Scholar, Overbeck 1123) adds nothing. Plutarch, (Pericles 13, Overbeck 1121)Google Scholar gives an apophthegm of Zeuxis, which suggests that he and Agatharchus were contemporaries.
