Metrodorus of Athens (Greek: Μητρόδωρος ὁ Ἀθηναῖος) was an Athenian philosopher and painter who flourished in the 2nd century BC. It chanced that Aemilius Paulus, visiting Athens on his return from his victory over Perseus of Macedon in 168 BC, asked for a tutor for his children and a painter to glorify his triumph. The inhabitants suggested Metrodorus as capable of discharging both duties, and it is recorded that Aemilius was entirely satisfied.

dbo:abstract
  • Metrodor d'Atenes (grec antic: Μητρόδωρος, llatí: Metrodorus) fou un pintor i filòsof grec molt distingit, que va viure al segle ii aC. Quan Emili Paule després de la seva victòria sobre Perseu de Macedònia el 168 aC va demanar als atenencs que li enviessin el més destacat dels seus filòsofs per educar als seus fills i el millor pintor per representar el seu triomf, li van enviar Metrodor com el més competent en ambdós camps. Emili Paule un temps després, quan va veure la seva tasca, va estar d'acord per complet en aquesta elecció, segons que explica Plini el Vell a la Naturalis Historia. (ca)
