The surviving sections on which the reconstruction is based are slightly raised and with more detailed and darker paint, rather than flat colours. The original description in the catalogue reads: "Spiral and lotus design, found by Tsountas near the Western portal, possibly L.H. II (1500-1400 B.C.): reconstructed drawing." |
