Leave an impression with this metal-tooling activity inspired by some of the incredible artifacts in our summer exhibition The Greeks – Agamemnon to Alexander the Great.
The Ancient Greeks were known for their skilled metalwork, as you will see in the intricate gold objects — masks, jewellery and weapons — on display in our new summer exhibition The Greeks – Agamemnon to Alexander the Great. Visit the exhibition for inspiration, then try your hand at our metal-tooling activity. Reproduce a scene from Homer’s Odyssey, or create your own original composition. Add a decorative border from patterns found in Ancient Greek mosaics and architecture, and your Greek-inspired masterpiece is complete!
