The Blue Ladies are a fresco of unparalleled prehistoric beauty that adorns the ancient palace of Knossos. The small part of the image that has been saved reveals elaborate jewelery and rich woven dresses. Painted on a wall, frescoes date back to 1600-150 BC Here we see the heads and upper torsos of three women with long tresses, headbands, flounced dresses with an open bodice. Blue is the predominant colour. The Minoan civilization was a Bronze Age civilization that existed on the island of Crete and flourished from approximately the 27 th until the 15th century BC.
