Answer 1

1) Фидий

2)он обвинялся в 2 преступлениях :1) Его обвинили в утайке золота, из которого был сделан плащ Афины Парфенос. Но художник оправдался очень просто: золото было снято с основы и взвешено, недостачи не было обнаружено.

2)Следующее обвинение повлекло гораздо большие проблемы. Его обвинили в оскорблении божества: на щите Афины в числе прочих изваяний Фидий поместил свой и периклов профиль (подробнее об изображении см. Афина Парфенос). Скульптора бросили в тюрьму, где он покончил с жизнью

Answer 2

The Friend of Pericles who Supervised the Construction on the Acropolis

The friend of the Athenian strategist Pericles who supervised the construction of temples and statues on the Athenian Acropolis was Phidias. Phidias was a renowned ancient Greek sculptor and architect who played a significant role in the artistic and architectural projects of Pericles during the Golden Age of Athens.

Accusations and Justification

Phidias faced accusations related to his work on the Acropolis. He was accused of embezzlement and impiety. The embezzlement accusation was based on the alleged theft of gold from the statue of Athena Parthenos, which Phidias had created for the Parthenon. The accusation of impiety was related to the inclusion of a portrait of himself and Pericles on the shield of the statue of Athena.

Phidias justified himself by claiming that he had not stolen any gold but had used it all for the construction of the statue. He also argued that the inclusion of his and Pericles' portraits on the shield of the statue was a way to honor their contributions to the city of Athens. Phidias further defended himself by stating that the inclusion of portraits on the statue was a common practice in ancient Greek art.
