Visiting the Fitzwilliam Museum

Today we have been to Cambridge, to visit the Fitzwilliam Museum and discover more about Ancient Greece, together with spending some time in the Ancient Egypt and French 19th- 20th Century Art Galleries.

The Museum itself is a very impressive building...




We were very fortunate to have a session with a specialist teacher from the Museum about Ancient Greece. She responded to our questions and we were absorbed by the information that she gave us, together with the evidence that we found around the Gallery in response to her questions abut life in Ancient Greece. 




Earlier we had visited the Art section of the museum, passing through many older paintings until we came to the French Impressionist collection. This was a great opportunity to enjoy the artwork, talk about it and sketch a painting of our choice.
