This room was intended for one of the museum libraries.
Medallions on its walls contain profiles of ancient philosophers:
Aristotle, Plato and Cicero. The display entitled "Archaic Greece,
Ancient Cyprus" presents masterpieces of the collection: painted vases
from ancient Athens, Corinth and the cities of Ionia, and also artefacts
from the 27th-5th centuries B.C. (stone and earthenware vessels, bronze
castings, terracotta statuettes, carved gems and works of jewellery).
Works of art from ancient Cyprus are also on display in this room
- vases, terracotta and stone statuettes (late 3rd millennium - 5th
century B.C.). |
