Little Masters (Greek vase painting)

A little master cup

The Little masters were a group of potters and vase painters who produced vases of the Attic black-figure style featuring well-done figures in miniature. They were active in Athens approximately 560 — 530 BC.[1] They mainly produced Little-master cups: lip cups, band cups and droop cups, but were not entirely limited to such shapes.
