Sa période d'activité va de [[-375|375]] à [[-335|335 avant J.-C.]] Il est le premier artiste à avoir représenté le nu féminin intégral dans la grande sculpture grecque.
 
'''Praxiteles''' ([[Ancient Greek]]: Πραξιτέλης, English {{IPAEng|prækˈsɪtɨliːz}}) of [[Athens]], the son of [[Cephisodotus the Elder]], was the most renowned of the [[Attica|Attic]] [[sculptors]] of the [[4th century BC]]. He was the first to sculpt the [[nude]] [[Woman|female form]] in a life-size statue.

While no indubitably attributable sculpture by Praxiteles is extant, numerous copies of his works have survived; contemporary [[author]]s, including [[Pliny the Elder]], wrote of his oeuvres; and coins engraved with [[silhouette]]s of his various famous [[statuary type]]s from the period still exist.
 
A supposed relationship between Praxiteles and his beautiful model, the [[Thespiae|Thespian]] [[courtesan]] [[Phryne]], has inspired speculation and interpretation in works of art ranging from [[painting]] ([[Jean-Léon Gérôme|Gérôme]]) to [[comic opera]] ([[Camille Saint-Saëns|Saint-Saëns]]) to [[shadow puppet]]ry ([[Charles Maurice Donnay|Donnay]]).
