Minoan Wall Painting of Pseira, Crete - A Goddess Worshipped in the Shrine

This study of a fragmentary wall painting from the Minoan shrine on the islet of Pseira, located just off the northeastern coast of Crete, reveals a large-scale goddess facing a smaller suppliant in a presentation scene on an incurved altar platform; its style and technique argue for a strong Knossian religious presence at Pseira.
