Agoracritus

Agoracritus was a Parian and Athenian sculptor of the age of Phidias, and said to have been his favourite pupil.

His most noted work was the statue at Rhamnus of Nemesis, by some attributed to Phidias himself. Of this statue part of the head is in the British Museum; some fragments of the reliefs which adorned the pedestal are in the museum at Athens.
