Achilles Bandaging Patroclus (c-500). Ceramic red-figure kylix. Detail 18 x 18. Full 20. Attributed to Sosias Painter. Sosias was a Greek potter, one of the representatives of the red-figure style. He is known for his marking on two vases. He also used the black-figure style, showing figures in wide planes and avoiding perspective shortcuts. He tried to convey the muscles of a figure with a few schematic lines. He depicted the natural folding of robes in detail, trying to recreate the thickness of the cloth and the variety of draperies in his paintings. He painted both mythological and sports scenes. One of the most famous works is Sosiasa kylix, the interior showing Achilles with a wounded Patroclus, and the entrance of Heracles to Olympus on the outside, now in the collection of the Altes Museum.
