Greek and Roman mythology have been important aspects of Western literature and art for over 2500 years.  In this virtual tour, we will view sculptures, paintings, etchings, and engravings spanning six centuries that all contain mythological figures.  We will view the art, explore the stories behind the figures, and also discuss current-day messages for many of these.
