femme-de-lettres:Large (Wikimedia)This, the Spring fresco from Akrotiri, a Bronze-age Minoan city on an island in the Mediterranean, shows a colorful, rocky landscape filled with flowers and birds.The fresco hints at the ultimate demise of the city as it was, and at the event that preserved this piece of its history so well: the colorful, strangely shaped rocks are volcanic.The rest, dear reader, I suspect you can piece together for yourself. -- source link
