Exhibition Tour-Africa & Byzantium | Met Exhibitions

[@SkyeRangerNick]

Wonderful. Thank you so much for creating this online tour, especially the narrative. It is important work, in my view. Here I am in Kentucky, USA, viewing this art and history across space and time. And yes, thank you to all those who support this work financially and with guidance.

[@metmuseum]

Thank you for watching!

Hopefully you can add some historians who can shed light of the art of the and world empires like Babylon the Medes and Persians and Greece and Rome all heavily influenced each other has one kingdom rose and another fell but kept elements of the previous kingdom.

Thank you for producing this for those of us with a high degree of interest in the exhibition but are not able to travel to see it.

Dr. Achi wow! So impressive. I was fortunate to visit the exhibit, but this overview is very informative!

[@angelarose_sr]

I saw over thanksgiving and loved it! it was very moving and great to experience in person, but this video and Dr. Achi's book highlights so much more for me, I'm grateful to have the video and the book!

[@OkOk-tt2dg]

Hello, does the book show a lot more pieces than in this video? I'm thinking about buying the book.

[@suemick8709]

The condition of the artifacts is remarkable.

Byzantine Arts, especially mosaics were the one of the best art diversion at their time.

[@lefterismagkoutas4430]

Beautiful exhibition with an even better narration! Thank you for this amazing trip in a very interesting historical cultural connection!

[@miketacos9034]

I wish this exhibit was still open this summer, this would be a dream come true to see!

[@yuyutubee8435]

Beautiful pieces. It really makes you wonder what humanity lost during the atrocities of the Venetians and Franks in the 13th century and of the Turks in the 15th century.

[@cheri238]

Stolen art and artifacts have been in all cultures and wars. Theft had been recently found, at least in Indonesia by a man of wealth, and some are being returned. This man denied it, but he was caught and then died. His family amends. Thank you, Met. I have been inside the Met many times when I lived in NYC. 🙏❤️🌏🌿🕊🎵🎶🎵

This is soo cool, i gotta make it to this.

[@King_Punt]

This history was not forget or ignored it was actually stolen. This is highly brazen to deal in stolen art and then pass judgment on they people whos art was stolen. Do yall think these museums pay any rental fee for stolen works of art to the nation it was stolen from?

[@JustinJohn-j4r]

Well the Roman Empire no longer exists, who do you pay?

[@btamp925]

Notwithstanding the grammatical errors, your point is well taken and sadly true…..

[@sheemakarp6424]

@@JustinJohn-j4rmaybe just make all museums & exhibitions free to the public at all times? That would be actually useful & in keeping with their intended value.

[@markboles135]

So much of the stunning works of art would have been looted or destroyed if not for numerous efforts to secure, house, and protect such works. Your criticism is short-sighted and misses the mark completely. Look to the stunning destruction suffered due to the recent Syrian civil war.
