Fresco fragment from a women’s procession scene
From the Tiryns citadel. 13th c. BC.
(ΕΑΜ/ΝΑΜ Π 5883α)
The procession of women offering valuable gifts towards a deity or towards the Mycenaean ruler, once decorated the walls of the Tiryns palace. These women, either divine beings or ladies of status, impress with their elaborate hairstyling and their excessively large breasts protruding through their luxurious dress.
