The Mycenaean Princess


A 5 1/2 inch doll I dressed in the Mycenaean style. I posed her before a painting of one of the Akrotiri frescoes that I did back in May.

That's very pretty. I have two Barbie ooak Minoan ladies, and one small Kelly doll ooak Minoan child. They were made by an eBay seller called dakotasong, who make loads of historical and mythological ooaks (ooak - One Of A Kind).

The Mycenaean Princess is only half the size, though. I do intend to do a Minoan Snake Goddess soon. She will look like the statue, or as close to it as I can possibly do.

I had someone fire the doll and do the hair, but I dressed her head to toe.

That is really creative, she is beautiful.

Do you sell these or is it a hobby.
