ABOUT THE SYMPOSIUM:
The ancient writer Pausanias said that the base of the statue of Athena inside the Parthenon was a scene of Pandora. But what exactly did it look like? Maria Sellers will share her research into Pandora on the base of Athena and show her project to provide a clear visual description of the famous Pandora scene. Through her color restoration we will see what an Acropolis visitor might have seen 2,500 years ago!
