Explanation:

The Achilles Painter was a Greek vase - painter of the late Archaic and early Classical periods. His works often depicted scenes from daily life, which gives insight into Greek city life.

Option a: His vases were not enormous. The "enormous" description is more associated with some other types of ancient Greek art like certain statues or architectural elements, not typical of his vases.

Option c: His art was more about detailed scenes from daily life rather than just outlined or drawn imagery.

Option d: Oil - based paints made from linseed oil were not used in ancient Greek vase - painting. Ancient Greek vase - painters used water - based clay slips (for black - figure and red - figure techniques).

Answer:

B. His works gave insight into Greek city life.
