Information: - Aglaophon (Gr. ) was an ancient Greek painter, born on the island of Thasos. He was the father and instructor of Polygnotus. He had another son named Aristophon. As Polygnotus flourished before the 90th Olympiad, Aglaophon probably lived around the 70th Olympiad, that is, around the late 6th or early 5th century BC. Quintilian praises his paintings, which were distinguished by the simplicity of their coloring, as worthy of admiration on other grounds besides their antiquity. - Thasos or Thassos is a Greek island, geographically part of the North Aegean Sea, but administratively part of the Kavala regional unit. It is the northernmost Greek island, and 12th largest by area. Thasos is also the name of the largest town of the island (officially known as "Limenas Thasou", "Port of Thasos"), situated at the northern side, opposite the mainland and about from Keramoti. Thassos island is a known from the ancient times for its termae making it a climatic and balneoclimateric resort area. - Keramoti is a town and a former municipality in the Kavala regional unit, East Macedonia and Thrace, Greece. Since the 2011 local government reform it is part of the municipality Nestos, of which it is a municipal unit. The municipal unit has an area of 115.095 km. As of the 2011 census, the municipal unit had a population of 5,115, and the town had a population of 1,438. Originated as a small fisherman's village of Greek immigrants from Asia Minor today Keramoti is a picturesque little sea resort with a faboulous sandy beach,several little hotels and a lot of vacation rentals. - Ancient Greek includes the forms of Greek used in ancient Greece and the ancient world from around the 9th century BC to the 6th century AD. It is often roughly divided into the Archaic period (9th to 6th centuries BC), Classical period (5th and 4th centuries BC), and Hellenistic period (3rd century BC to the 6th century AD). It is antedated in the second millennium BC by Mycenaean Greek. - The Hellenistic period covers the period of ancient Greek (Hellenic) history and Mediterranean history between the death of Alexander the Great in 323 BC and the emergence of the Roman Empire as signified by the Battle of Actium in 31 BC and the subsequent conquest of Ptolemaic Egypt the following year. At this time, Greek cultural influence and power was at its peak in Europe, Africa and Asia, experiencing prosperity and progress in the arts, exploration, literature, theatre, architecture, music, mathematics, philosophy, and science. It is often considered a period of transition, sometimes even of decadence or degeneration, compared to the enlightenment of the Greek Classical era. The Hellenistic period saw the rise of New Comedy, Alexandrian poetry, the Septuagint and the philosophies of Stoicism and Epicureanism. Greek Science was advanced by the works of the mathematician Euclid and the polymath Archimedes. The religious sphere expanded to include new gods such as the Greco-Egyptian Serapis, eastern deities such as Attis and Cybele and the Greek adoption of Buddhism. - Ancient Greece was a civilization belonging to a period of Greek history from the Greek Dark Ages of the 12th-9th centuries BC to the end of antiquity (AD). Immediately following this period was the beginning of the Early Middle Ages and the Byzantine era. Roughly three centuries after the Late Bronze Age collapse of Mycenaean Greece, Greek urban poleis began to form in the 8th century BC, ushering in the period of Archaic Greece and colonization of the Mediterranean Basin. This was followed by the period of Classical Greece, an era that began with the Greco-Persian Wars, lasting from the 5th to 4th centuries BC. Due to the conquests by Alexander the Great of Macedonia, Hellenistic civilization flourished from Central Asia to the western end of the Mediterranean Sea. The Hellenistic period came to an end with the conquests and annexations of the eastern Mediterranean world by the Roman Republic, which established the Roman province of Macedonia in Roman Greece, and later the province of Achaea during the Roman Empire. - Polygnotus / plnots / ( Greek : Polygnotos ) was an ancient Greek painter from the middle of the 5th century BC. He was the son and pupil of Aglaophon . He was a native of Thasos , but was adopted by the Athenians , and admitted to their citizenship . During the time of Cimon , Polygnotus painted for the Athenians a picture of the taking of Troy on the walls of the Stoa Poikile , and another of the marriage of the daughters of Leucippus in the Anacaeum . Plutarch mentions that historians and the poet Melanthius attest that Polygnotus did not paint for the money but rather out of a charitable feeling towards the Athenian people . In the hall at the entrance to the Acropolis other works of his were preserved . The most important of his paintings were his frescoes in the Lesche of the Knidians , a building erected at Delphi by the people of Cnidus . The subjects of these were the visit to Hades by Odysseus and the taking of Troy . Fortunately the traveller Pausanias recorded a careful description of these paintings , figure by figure . The foundations of the building have been recovered in the course of the French excavations at Delphi . From this evidence , some archaeologists have tried to reconstruct the paintings , other than their colours . The figures were detached and seldom overlapping , ranged in two or three rows one above another ; and the farther were not smaller nor dimmer than the nearer . Therefore , it seems that the paintings of this time were executed on almost precisely the same plan as contemporary sculptural reliefs . Polygnotus employed only a few simple colours . Technically his art was primitive . His excellence lay in the beauty of his drawing of individual figures , especially in the '' ethical '' and ideal character of his art. A contemporary and perhaps teacher of Pheidias , Polygnotus had the same grand manner . Simplicity , which was almost childlike , sentiment at once noble and gentle , extreme grace and charm of execution , marked his works , in contrast to the more animated ,...
