The Metropolitan Museum of Art presents us with a rich sampling of the
splendid cultural heritage of Greece. Not only does it emphasize the
diverse geographic centers of artistic production but it also covers a
broad chronological span, extending from the Early Bronze Age to the
Classic Period of the fifth century B.C. Many of the objects are of
particular interest in that they are recent finds, which, outside of
archaeological circles, are known only to those who have actually
visited the National Museum in Athens, and the many different local
museums throughout the Greek islands. The loan demonstrates the
significant cultural interconnections among the islands as well as the
wealth and variety of materials used and the lively forms that
characterize so much of Greek art.
