Makron
( fl early 5th century BC). Greek vase painter. He has been ascribed over 350 vases, more than any other Athenian painter in the Red-figure technique. However, only one is certainly signed by him. Makron worked consistently with the potter Hieron, and of more than 30 signed works by Hieron almost all are painted by Makron. Most of the vessels are cups on tall stands, and the pictures inside these are always framed with a simple meander.
