This lecture brings to life the fabulous costumes of Minoan and Mycenaean royalty and deities that were of the utmost luxury and decorated with exquisite patterns and appliqués of gold and precious gems and topped with exquisite jewelry. No longer preserved, the costumes are replicated through detailed analysis of art and texts and draped on live models posed as in art and juxtaposed with the sculptures and wall paintings they imitate. Fragments of frescoes found out of context are digitally reassembled and reconstructed to restore once lost garments and remarkable scenes of the palatial and everyday life of the Aegean Bronze Age.
