The potter Sosias is known to us from two kylixes in Berlin,
one of which (1*) has been responsible for the most voluminous
literature in ceramics except possibly the Meidias hydria.
Who the artist of his vases was has never been definitely
settled; the latest theory (supported by Hauser, Beazley, and
Miss Radford) which seems most probable, is that Euphronios
was the painter. Furtwangler and Hartwig assigned 1* to Peithi-
nos but as rightly remarked by Hauser that artist belongs to an
earlier period of the archaic style.
Buschor, again, considers the vase by another nameless painter
whom he calls the Sosias Painter.
