Cimón de Cleone (en griego antiguo: Κίμων, Kímon; Cleone, siglo VI a. C. – ?) fue un pintor griego de la Antigüedad.

Biografía

Nacido en Cleone, junto a Corinto, Cimón parece que fue el verdadero iniciador de la pintura griega y el precursor de Polignoto de Taso.

Según Plinio el Viejo, fue el inventor de la perspectiva múltiple o escorzo (catagrapha id este obliquae imagines). Su obra original ha desaparecido y no existen más referencias que las pinturas presentes en los jarrones griegos de finales del siglo VI a. C.. (Olto, Eufronio).

[en] Cimon of Cleonae

Cimon of Cleonae was an early painter of ancient Greece. He was said to have introduced great improvements in drawing. He represented figures, according to Pliny, "out of the straight", and he developed ways of representing faces looking back, up, or down; he also made the joints of the body clear, emphasized veins, worked out folds and doublings in garments (according to Pliny). Pliny also said Cimon of Cleonae's attention to detail and accuracy to life was so great, that he was famously able to dispense with what had always been the universal custom of affixing the name of generals to their portraits, since they were so readily recognizable. All these improvements may be traced in the drawing of early Greek red-figured vases.[1]
