The Chiusi Painter was an Attic black-figure vase painter, active in the final quarter of the sixth century BC. His real name is now known. The Chiusi Painter was part of the so-called Leagros Group, the last major important group of painters in the black-figure style. He is characterised by a “boring delicateness^[1] compared to other artists of the group, but fails to reach the original of e.g. the Acheloos Painter.
