Once we got passed the crowd of people, walking around the museum wasn’t that bad. I was using the tricks that Sam taught me, so walking around with people near me wasn’t that bad. Each trick involves me using my imagination and thinking that everyone around me was a zombie and I was disguise as a zombie moving through the crowd. The downside was getting into the museum; I thought I was going to have another panic attack. When Lukas and I were walking around the…

The Scream by Edvard Munch is an iconic painting in today’s time, much like the Mona Lisa has been in the past. Munch found his inspiration for this piece of art from an actual place located on a hill in Norway and at the bottom of the hill was the madhouse where Munch’s sister was kept. The painting is of a person with a ghostly face, standing beside a railing. What catches your eyes in this photo is the person is standing there shrieking, mouth wide open, with a hand on both sides of their…

There is one issue that all ancient Greek art historians and archeologist agree on. That issue is that the reason why the Parthenon frieze cannot be correctly solved is that there is no ancient literature or sources that appropriately archives the context of the frieze.

originated from Gaul (modern-day France). Archaeologists think that the coins date from the early seventh century AD.

When archaeologists found the artifacts, they had to be sent to the lab for analysis in boxes lined with moss. This was because many of the artifacts were corroded and fragmented. Also, the British government owned…

The Hirshhorn Museum: Rings of Adventure The Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden has always generated conversation about its choices. Even after it had just been constructed, its architectural choices were the subject of critique. Two days after the museum opened in 1974, Ada Louise Huxtable, of The New York Times, gave the following review: “[The building] is known around Washington as the bunker or gas tank, lacking only gun emplacements or an Exxon sign… It totally lacks the essential…

When I set out to the Metropolitan Museum in New York I did not expect to have as much fun as I did, nor did I expect to be there for over six hours. The Metropolitan has a vast collection and some of the most unique artifacts I can ever remember seeing at a museum. From the Greek and Roman art, to the sarcophaguses from Roman and Egyptian lands, it even has a reconstructed pyramid, and I didn't even get to experience more than half of the artifacts. One enormous piece that caught my attention,…
