Etruscan Vase Collection Room

Why go

A vessel’s shape tells you how it might have been handled, while its painted surface carries another set of clues. Seen together, the pots make trade and artistic influence easier to trace than a single masterpiece would. This room gives the Etruscan collection a material contrast with its bronze and jewellery sections.

What to look for

• Painted vessels appear in varied forms.
• The pottery reflects exchange across the ancient Mediterranean.

Useful to know

• Compare vessel shapes before focusing on the painted decoration.
