Award for exhibition production

My congratulations to the exhibition producer and to the museum management for such an exquisite production! The display, the lighting and the setup are fantastic! The only thing I can personally imagine to rival this would be an outdoor in situ display at the excavation site of Zeugma, on the Euphrates. But, as I understand it the site is now at least partially flooded through the dam constructed - so this is as good as it gets.

Below, you can see also another damaged mosaic with pieces missing, where scholars and museum staff are searching for the centre-piece and hoping to replace it with the rest of the collection.

Oh, you should have seen it, it was one of the best produced exhibitions I have seen in a long time, actually. Deservedly, for the mosaics are exquisite. More to come... ;-)
