This fresco is from the Minoan civilization due to its use of bright colors, the stylized and repetitive plants, and the very narrow waist.
This piece likely originates from the Minoan civilization; this inference is supported by the linear style of the fresco and the use of bright colors. Additionally, there is a stylization of an organic form (in this case, the plant has become a decorative pattern).
This fresco appears to be of Minoan origins. The idealized thin waist and slim build of the figure is certainly a characteristic of Minoan art. Bright hues are used in the painting, similar to the Minoan fresco called The Girl Gathering Saffron Flowers. Finally, the style used by the artist is very linear, organic, and curvy, all traits of Minoan art.
This fresco is probably from the Minoan civilization of the Aegean. The stylization of nature,thin waist, and use of vibrant colors are all common characterities of Minoan art. This work is also linear and repetitive.
This fresco is from the Minoan civilization becuase of its use of bright colors. The piece is also stylized and has reptitive plants. The figure also has a very narrow waist which is similar to the fresco of the people jumping over the bull.
This fresco is from the Minoan period. You can tell because the figure is presented very idealistically with a thin figure. The nature aspects of the fresco are very stylized and the colors are vibrant, similar to other frescos of the time. There is also a lot of repitition, wavy lines and organic aspects.
From looking at the photo given, I can assume that the fresco is from the Minoan Civilization. I know this because the piece shares similar features with the Minoan fresco “Young Girl Gathering Saffron Crocus Flowers.” They are both colorful as well as linear and curvy.
This fresco was made during the Minoan civilization. my inference is based on the stylized plants and the bright colors that are soaked within the plaster. looking at the figure, the the thin waist line and curvaceous body are also seen in other Minoan works.
This new piece, represents lots of different styles that were used in the Minoan civilization. It looks Minoan because of the narrow waist, showing an exaggerated view of the body. It also shows the strong use of color that the Minoans represented on their frescoes, often depicting their environment.
I think that this piece is from the Minoan civilization. The man in the fresco has a tiny waist which is a Minoan characteristic. Also the use of color and wavy lines. Also the fresco is showing movement not like the Egyptian paintings.
This piece of art is a fresco from the Minoan civilization. This work uses a lot of brilliant colors and the man has a very thin waist. These are characteristic of this culture. Also, this fresco has a repetitive pattern of plants. Forms of nature and plants occurs in a lot of Minoan works.
This fresco, I think, originated in the Minoan civilization because of the curvy figure of the character and small waist. The plants are also very stylized and repetitive, and vibrant colors are used. All of which are characteristics of Minoan art.
One can assume that this piece is from the Minoan period. The Minoan characteristic of showing a slim waist and figure is apparent in this fresco. Also, the bright colors and wavy lines in this work are seen throughout the Minoan period.
This is a Minoan fresco. This is because there are vibrant colors and it is of linear style. In addition, the idealized thin waist and body is seen.
The frscoe is most likely fron the minioan culture due to the usage of bright colors, plants, as well as the very narrow waist.
This painting, most likely a fresco, is probably from the Minoan civilization. Like the bull leaping fresco, from the same period, this man has a small waist, is painted with bright colors, and incorporates nature acting as a frame.
This fresco is most likely from the Minoan civilization. This is because of the trends of Minoan art that are demonstrated in this piece. The way the figure is pictured is similar to the figure in "Wall Painting At Akrotiri". The colors and stylization are similar. The nature that is depicted is also typical of Minoan art. Also the way teh nature is depicted in this piece is similar to that found in "Landscape(Spring Fresco)".
This fresco is evidently from the Minoan civilization. The pinched in waist and movement portrayed in the figure proves that this work is Minoan. Additionally, the striking colors and repetition of plants represent characteristics of Minoan art.
This fresco is from the Minoan civilization. The bright colors and thin waist line are common in many other Minaon works. Also, repeated patterns (such as the flowers in the background) is one of many typical elements seen in Minoan pieces.
This fresco is clearly from the Minoan civilization of the Agean. The bright colors are most likely a result of the wet wall painting done by the Minoans. The wavy lines used in the thin-waisted figure shown are also characteristic of Minoan art.
From looking at this fresco, I would assume it is from the Minoan civilization. I can infer this because of the representation of nature, and because of the figure of the person. The exaggerated small waist is also seen in the bull leaping fresco.
