Program Description

Event Details

Join this virtual tour as we explore the Greek and Roman galleries at The Metropolitan Museum of Art. We'll learn about the history of this section of the museum and how the space has been transformed over the decades. We will visit large colossal statues of youthful gods, as well as come face to face with busts of men who prefer to show their wrinkles and war injuries proudly. We'll look at the different orders of columns and view different examples within the gallery, and finally visit the bedroom from Pompeii that was frozen in time.
