Antigonus (Greek, Ancient (to 1453);: Ἀντίγονος) was a sculptor of ancient Greece, and an eminent writer upon his art, was one of the artists who represented the battles of Attalus I and Eumenes against the Gauls.[1] He lived, therefore, about 239 BCE, when Attalus I, king of Pergamus, conquered the Gauls. According to Pliny, Antigonus sculpted statues of Harmodius and Aristogeiton, and a "Perixyomenos" - probably a sculpture of a man scraping himself.[2] He may have been the same Antigonus who wrote on the art of painting and was mentioned by Diogenes Laërtius.[3]
