Acragas (Gr. Ακράγας) was an engraver, or silversmith, spoken of by Pliny the Elder. It is not known either when or where he was born. Pliny says that Acragas, Boethus and were considered but little inferior to , an artist of great note in the same profession; and that works of all three were in existence in his day, preserved in different temples in the island of Rhodes. Those of Acragas, who was especially famed for his representations of hunting scenes on cups, were in the temple of Bacchus at Rhodes, and consisted of cups with figures of Bacchae and Centaurs graved on them. If the language of Pliny justifies us in inferring that the three artists whom he classes together lived at the same time, that would fix the age of Acragas in the latter part of the fifth century BC, as Mys was a

  • Acragas (en llatí Acragas, en grec antic Ακράγας) fou un argenter i gravador de plata grec del que parla Plini. No se sap ni on ni quan va néixer. Plini diu que juntament amb Boet i Mis eren els tres més importants, només superats per Mentor, el més gran artista del gremi i que a la seva època les obres dels tres es conservaven sobretot a diversos temples de Rodes. Les obres d'Acragas, que tenien fama sobretot per les representacions d'escenes de caça, es trobaven al temple de Baccus. Si el que diu Plini significa que els tres artistes van viure a la mateixa època, resulta que Acragas va viure a la darrera part del segle V aC, ja que Mis era contemporani de Fídies. (ca)
  • Ο Ακράγας ήταν χαράκτης που έζησε τον 4ο αιω. π.Χ. και αναφέρεται από τον Πλίνιο. Πιθανολογείται ότι γεννήθηκε στον Ακράγαντα της Σικελίας και έργα του υπήρχαν στο ναό του Διονύσου στη Λίνδο της Ρόδου. Σύμφωνα με ορισμένους μελετητές οι Βάκχες που εκτίθενται στο Εθνικό Αρχαιολογικό Μουσείο της Αθήνας και ανακαλύφθηκαν στις ανασκαφές του Παλαιόκαστρου Καρδίτσας θεωρούνται έργα του. (el)
