At Athens he painted, according to Pausanias, a series of paintings of mythological subjects in the Pinakotheke in the Propylaea on the Acropolis, and pictorial decorations for the temple of The- seus, and the Pcecile. He executed a series of paintings at Delphi on the long walls of the Lesche. The wall to the right on entering the Lesche bore scenes illustrative of the epic myth of the taking of Troy; the left, the visit of Ulysses to the lower world, as described in the Odyssey. Pliny remarks... that in place of the old seventy and rigidity of the features he introduced a great variety of expression, and was the first to paint figures with the lips open. Lucian attributes to him great improve- ments in the rendering of drapery so as to show the forms under- death. Apollodorus, of Athens, was the first great master of light and shade. According to Pliny he was the first to paint men and things as the) 7 really appear. A more advanced stage of improved painting began with Zeuxis, in which art aimed at illusion of the senses and the rendering of external charms.
