The ancient Greek, Italian, and Roman collection (“classical art”) at the NCMA provides visitors with a survey of art covering more than 3,000 years and much of the Mediterranean. It comprises works of art from ancient Greece at different periods: Cycladic, Mycenaean, Geometric, and Classical, which features the greatest number of objects. The ancient cultures of the Villanovans and Etruscans in what is now Italy are also represented alongside works of art from different parts of the Roman Empire. The collection also includes art from ancient Cyprus, an island controlled at various times by other powers in the Mediterranean, including the Greeks and Romans.
