Minoan Amphora with marine illustration
A beautiful Minoan amphora vase deocrated with a marine illustration of octopuses, dolphins, and shells. It is painted with ocher, red, and black colors and is inspired by vessels discovered at the Palace of Knossos in Crete. It depicts aquatic images emphasizing non-symmetrical balance and opposed diagonal movements, a technique widely used in Crete and other Greek islands with which the Minoans had close commercial ties during the ancient Minoan era. Even today, these vases connect perfectly with modern spaces due to their movement
