The essence and definition of painting is, the imitation of visible objects, by means of form and colors: Wherefore the more, forcibly and faithfully painting imitates nature, the more directly and rapidly does it lead us to its end, which is to deceive the eye; and the surer proofs does it give us of its true idea.

Mycenaean paintings
Many pictures of Mycenaean warriors have been found. Most wear helmets and leg guards but no body armour.
Mycenaean painting is related to Minoan art, with military themes and abstraction becoming evident.
One of the latest examples of Mycenaean painting is the krater – bowl for mixing wine and water – commonly called the Warriors vase after to prominent frieze of soldiers marching off to war, while a woman stands and looks after them.
The painting on this vase reveals no setting and the landscape elements that characterized earlier Minoan and Mycenaean art.
However, the liveliness of the representation and the careful observation, especially in details of costume are no less apparent.
Mycenaean culture as reflected in its art was preoccupied with death and war. It is no coincidence that many of the richest finds have come form tombs.
