Crete - Parisian Woman - original fresco from Knossos Heraklion Museum.jpg

This small lifesize image of a very fashionable Minoan woman is called the "Parisian Woman" due to that association.
Most likely, she represents a priestess and is part of a fresco from the Palace of Knossos, dated 15th century B.C.E.
