Biyografi:

Antenor, son of Eumares, was an Athenian sculptor who lived in the 6th century BC. He is best known for creating the joint statues of the tyrannicides Harmodius and Aristogeiton, which were funded by the Athenians on the expulsion of Hippias. These statues were later carried away to Susa by Xerxes I of Persia during the Greco-Persian Wars. Archaeologists have also established that a basis signed by 'Antenor son of Eumares' belonged to a set of female figures in an archaic style which were displayed in the acropolis. The sculptor of the Harmodius and Aristogeiton is usually listed as the son of Euphranor.
