The Unseen Museum showcases the Mirror of Europe

Another hidden exhibit brought to light

After the exhibit Artemis from the sea at the National Archeology Museum, the Unseen Museum presents the the Mirror of Europe. “The Mirror of Europe” is a bronze mirror of the early 4th century BC, discovered in a tomb of rich woman from ancient Eretria. On its surface, you can see the wonderful representation of Europe on the bull. The mirror of Europe will be presented on Thursday, July 23, in the “Hall of the Altar” (Hall no.34) and will remain there until Sunday, September 20.

The unseen museum is a project that allows viewers to see antiquities selected from the museum’s storerooms due to lack of space. One after the other they have emerged and have been showcased every two months since the “Ring of Theseus” that kicked off the Unseen Museum project in March.
