Myron
Myron of Eleutherae () working c. 480 BC - 440 BC, was an Athenian sculptor from the mid-5th century BC.〔Pausanias' references (e.g. 6.8.4, etc.) seem to suggest that he habitually signed his works "Myron the Athenian": Eleutherae became an Athenian ''demos'' in 460 BCE.〕 He was born in Eleutherae on the borders of Boeotia and Attica. According to Pliny's Natural History, Ageladas of Argos was his teacher.〔Pliny, ''Natural History'' 34.57, suggests that Myron was also in some sense self-taught: "''Hageladae et ipsum discipulum.''" The account of Myron directly follows Pliny's account of Polyclitus of Sicyon, also a pupil of Ageladas.〕 The traveller Pausanias noted that sculptures by Myron remained ''in situ'' in the 2nd century CE.

Myron worked exclusively in bronze,〔Pausanias thought a ''xoanon'' was by Myron (Pausanias 2.30.2)〕 and though he made some statues of gods and heroes, his fame rested principally upon his representations of athletes, in which he made a revolution, according to commentators in Antiquity, by introducing greater boldness of pose and a more perfect rhythm, subordinating the parts to the whole. Pliny's remark that Myron's works were ''numerosior'' than those of Polycleitus and "more diligent"〔''"numerosior in arte quam Polyclitus et in symmetria diligentior"''〕 seem to suggest that they were considered more harmonious in proportions (''numeri'') and at the same time more convincing in realism: ''diligentia'' connoted "attentive care to fine points", a quality that, in moderation, was characteristic of the best works of art, according to critics in Antiquity.〔Ellen E. Perry, "Notes on Diligentia as a term of Roman art criticism" ''Classical Philology'' 95.4 (October 2000), pp. 445-458.〕
