my favorite walk in the museum is thru the Archaic Gallery

Archaic is the period throughout the 7th century BC, until the end of the Persian Wars (480/79 BC). This period is characterized by the development of the city-state and the transition from aristocracy to tyranny and, eventually, democracy. It is also characterized by great achievements in the economy, art and intellectual life….

in the south side of the gallery, the depictions of the young women (Korai) is my favorite corner.
