Travel Tip: Art and Archaeology in United States The New Greek Galleries
The New Greek Galleries: Greek and Roman Art Galleries UNITED STATES NEW YORK • Metropolitan Museum of Art • Ongoing
Following several years of planning and construction, seven completely renovated and reinstalled galleries for Greek art are open to the public on the Museum's first floor. This latest stage in a three-phase expansion of the exhibition space devoted to Greek and Roman art comprises the Mary and Michael Jaharis Gallery—the grand vaulted gallery that was formerly known as the Cypriot corridor, now fully skylit from above and clad in limestone walls as originally envisioned by McKim, Mead and White in 1917—and the six flanking galleries for Archaic and Classical Greek art, restored.
