Période Orientalisante ou haut archaïsme
Daedelic style
 |
Mold-made terracotta figures with highly stylized triangular faces framed by wiglike hair were produced throughout the Aegean during the seventh century B.C.
Today, the style is aptly called Daedelic after the mythological founder of art, Daedelos of Crete, for Crete probably introduce the style from Near East to Aegean. Such figures, usually fully dressed, appear on a variety of media, but large-scale limestone statues of this type were produced only in Crete. | | Related |  |
