Changing Views of The Parthenon

The Lysaght Centre Newport

When Lord Elgin, British Ambassador in Athens, removed the Parthenon Frieze and brought it home as a souvenir he probably did not expect that it would still be sparking incidents in the C21st. Opinions are divided as to where the Parthenon Frieze should rightly sit and we are fortunate to have Dr Shelley Hales of Bristol University to speak to us on the topic. Come and hear what she has to say and see whether it changes your opinion on the subject.
