contributed to the distinctness and animation of the
relief.

An attempt has been made by Brunn (Sitzungsber. d.
philos.-pliilol. Gl. d. 7c. layer. Alcad. d. Wissensch., 1882, p. 114)
to divide the Mausoleum frieze into four styles, to be
attributed to the four artists of Pliny, and Brunn's
division has been taken as a basis for Overbeck's plate
(Gr. Plast, fig. 171).
The series are as follows :

I. jLeochares andl Nos. 1009, 1010, 1018-1021.
II. (Timotheos J Nos. 1007, 1008, 1011, 1012.

III. Bryaxis. Nos. 1013, 1014, 1015, 1025.

IV. Scopas. Nos. 1006, 1016, 1017.

The Genoese slab (No. 1022) is separated from the
series by Brunn for reasons that have not been accepted
as valid, and the division into four classes is more
detailed than the conditions of the case permit. It also
separates one of the four slabs that were found together
by Newton from the remainder, and transfers to the north
side three slabs which were found, on the east side
(compare also Winter, Atlienische Mittheilungen, xix., p. 157).

Of the artists named by Pliny, Timotheos has recently
become better known by the sculptures of Epidauros
(Overbeck, Gr. Plast., ii.4, pp. 126, 127), which are
assigned to him, with probability, on the ground of
passages in the great building inscription of Epidauros
(Cavvadias, Fouilles d'Upidaure, i., pp. 79, 80). A base has
been found at Athens with the name of Bryaxis {Bull, de
Corr. Hellenique, 1892, pis. 3, 7 ; cf. Couve, ibidem, p. 553),
as to which it is doubtful whether the extant reliefs on the
sides, or the object on the torj now lost, were by Bryaxis.
The reliefs, representing three horsemen, are of a slight
character, and may be early works. For the style of
Scopas, the remains of the pediment at Tegea are the best
standard for comparison, and the four slabs of the east
