ut fecit Timanthes, opinor, Cythnius in
ea tabula, qua Coloten Teium vicit. nam cum in
Iphigeniae immolatione pinxisset tristem Calchantem, tristiorem Vlixem, addidisset Menelao, quem
summum poterat ars efficere, maerorem, consumptis
adfectibus, non reperiens, quo digne modo patris
vultum posset exprimere, velavit eius caput et suo
cuique animo dedit aestimandum.
