'''Aetion''', was a [[Ancient Greece|Greek]] [[painter]] of the [[4th century BC]].
He was the painter of ''Alexander and Roxanna's wedding'' (around [[327 BC]]), in which for the first time flying [[Cupid]]s were drawn. This inaugurated a fashion that influenced the entire [[Hellenistic period]].
The above-mentioned painting was presented by the author at the [[Olympic Games]], and its success was so overwhelming that the president of the Games married his daughter to Aetion.
