Flying fish fresco fragments of a seascape frieze, 1600-1500 BC. Phylakopi, Melos (Milos, volcanic Greek island in the Aegean Sea). Collection National Archeological Museum, Athens, Greece

The fresco decorated the wall of a room in a compound of religious character. Blue, red and black (for the outline) are used to create one of the most beautiful wall paintings of the Aegean, with obvious influences from Minoan Crete.
