Frommer's Review
This exhibition created copies of the Akrotiri wall paintings, using a sophisticated technique of three-dimensional photographic reproduction that closely approximates the originals. The displays present some of the paintings in a re-creation of their original architectural context. The terrace in front of the foundation offers an astonishing view toward Fira and Imerovigli. Allow an hour here.
