Abstract
A wall painting from the prehistoric settlement of Akrotiri (Santorini, Greece), which is known under the name of 'Lilies Fresco' or 'Spring Fresco', displays a rocky landscape with different stages of tafoni development. This painting could be the oldest preserved picture of tafoni. Its significance is discussed relative to geomorphological concepts and prehistorical landscape evolution.
