Who's that girl?
This is a stunning piece of art on a satsuma wrapper from Sardinia. I assume that the lady is a mythical goddess does anyone know who it is?

The women goddess may be Demeter the Greek harvest goddess not sure, en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demeter
Sounds like a fit. It's the logo of the wholesaler ILPO srl and I have asked them and I will let you know if I find out. The people of San Pietro Island come from Genoa I wonder if that is a clue?
Seems like her eyes being covered is important.
blindfolded chariot driving looks risky, but at least she's not texting.
definitely mythical. Either Demeter or Athena.
