The Salting Painter is an Athenian red-figure cup painter active ca. 510-500 BCE. The name derives from the previous owner
(Walter Salting) of a cup (London, Victoria and Albert Museum C2 496.1910; BAPD 201631) showing an athlete with a discus on
the interior. Other scenes include warriors and revelers (“komasts”). Findspots are mainland Greece (Corinth, Atalanti), Etruria,
Rome, and Naukratis.
