  • with Cupid (Pausias painted a depiction of Cupid.) “In it there is a painting by Pausias of Cupid throwing away his bow and arrows and taking up a lyre instead.”
  • with Polycletus (This is a distinct person-to-person edge only insofar as the text identifies Polycletus as the designer of the building painted by Pausias earlier; no direct relationship is stated.) “And Polycletus it was that designed this theatre and round building.”
