 The painting of the Mycenaean age was much influenced by that of the Minoan age . Fragments of wall paintings have been found in or around the palaces ( Pylos , Mycenae , Tiryns ) and in domestic contexts ( Zygouries ) . The largest complete wall painting depicting three female figures , probably goddesses , was found in the so @-@ called " cult center " at Mycenae . Various themes are represented : hunting , bull leaping ( tauromachy ) , battle scenes , processions , etc . Some scenes may be part of mythological narratives , but if so their meaning eludes us . Other frescoes include geometric or stylised motifs , also used on painted pottery ( see above ) .
