Minoan Dancing Ladies

For the next twelve weeks in my Drawing Faces class we’ll be looking at drawing faces through history. We started this week with this fresco from the Minoan Palace of Knossos, in Crete, Greece painted on plaster 3500 years ago (Ladies in blue fresco, Palace of Knossos, Greece 1600 – 1450 BCE: Wikimedia).
