Lydos was the main potter and painter of a large workshop in Athens, active between 565-535 B.C. His name is known through two signed vases, but experts have attributed several more to his hand and an even larger number to his wider workshop, such as this panel amphora decorated with a panther on both sides.
The name Lydos, or 'the Lydian', is believed to be a nickname, maybe indicating some connection of the artist to the region of Lydia, modern Turkey, cf. J. Beazley, Attic Black-Figure Vase-Painters, Oxford, 1956, pp. 107-120.
