The scene of
front side is based on the painting of «ladies in blue » fresco, from the great
palace at Knossos in Crete. The three white-skinned female figures with narrow
waists and beautifully coiled hairstyles in this fresco are wearing form-fitting
dresses with bare breasts. They are elaborately adorned with delicate
necklaces, bracelets, and hair ornaments in a display of the great wealth of
the Minoan court. The original reconstructed fresco is on display at the
Heraklion Archaeological Museum in Crete.
