Open translation for this passage
ὅστις δὲ ἦν ἀνθρώπων ὁ γυμνὰς πρῶτος Χάριτας ἤτοι πλάσας ἢ γραφῇ μιμησάμενος, οὐχ οἷόν τε ἐγένετο πυθέσθαι με, ἐπεὶ τά γε ἀρχαιότερα ἐχούσας ἐσθῆτα οἵ τε πλάσται καὶ κατὰ ταὐτὰ ἐποίουν οἱ ζωγράφοι·
The main predicate is οὐχ οἷόν τε ἐγένετο πυθέσθαι με; ὅστις ... is its embedded subject clause. The ἐπεί clause contrasts the earlier clothed representations, but ἐχούσας is textually/grammatically difficult as transmitted and is therefore marked medium confidence.

καὶ Σμυρναίοις τοῦτο μὲν ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ τῶν Νεμέσεων ὑπὲρ τῶν ἀγαλμάτων χρυσοῦ Χάριτες ἀνάκεινται, τέχνη Βουπάλου·
The main predicate is ἀνάκεινται, with Χάριτες as subject; Σμυρναίοις is a dative of association/location. τοῦτο μὲν introduces a contrastive clause whose continuation is not supplied. χρυσοῦ is likely a genitive of material modifying ἀγαλμάτων; τέχνη Βουπάλου is an appended attribution, probably with τέχνη understood as ‘the work/art’ of Bupalus.
