 opinion that he is the person here meant ; see end of B. viii. 



52 A diflferent person, most probably, from the writer of Pliny's age, 

 mentioned in B. xxxvii. c. 2. The Xenocrates here mentioned is probably 

 the same person that is spoken of in B. xxxv. c. 36, a statuary of the 

 school of Lysippus, and the pupil either of Tisicrates or of Euthycrates, 

 ■who flourished about b.c. 260. 



53 There were two artists of this name, prior to the time of PHny ; a 

 sculptor, mentioned by him in B. xxxiv. c. 19, and a painter, contemporary 

 with Apelles, mentioned in B. xxxv. c. 36. It is impossible to say which 

 of them, if eithei", is here meant.

56 It is impossible to say which writer of this name is here meant. See

5' A statuary, sculptor, and chaser in silver, who flourished at Eome 

 about B.C. 60. He was a native of Magna Grsecia, in the south of Italy. 

 He is not only mentioned in Chapter 55 of the present Book, but also in 

 B. xxxv. 0. 45, as au artist of the highest distinction. His narrow escape 

 from a panther, while copying from nature, is mentioned in B. xxxvi. c. 4. 

 His five Books on the most celebrated works of sculpture and chasing were 

 looked upon as a high authority in art. He was also the head of a school 

 of artists. 



5** A writer on painting of this name is mentioned by Diogenes Laertius, 

 B. vii. c. 12. He is probably the same as the person here mentioned, and 

 identical with the Greek sculptor mentioned by Pliny in B. xxxiv. c. 19, 

 who probably flourished about 240 e.g. The Toreutic Art, " Toreutice," 

 was the art of making raised work in silver or bronze, either by graving 

 or casting : but the exact meaning of the word is somewhat uncertain. 



59 Menfechmus of Sicyon, probably ; see end of B. iv., also B. xxxiv. c. 19. 



^0 If he is really a different person from the Xenocrates mentioned above, 

 notliing is known of him.
