description: "Iaia of Cyzicus, sometimes (incorrectly) called Lala or Lalla, or rendered as Laia or Maia, was a Greek painter born in Cyzicus, Roman Empire, and relatively exceptional for being a woman artist and painting women's portraits. She was alive during the time of Marcus Terentius Varro. In De Mulieribus Claris, his book of women's biographies, Boccaccio refers to her as \"Marcia,\" possibly confusing her with the Vestal Virgin of that name. According to Pliny the Elder: \"No one had a quicker hand than she in painting.\""
