Mirror with Ionic Volutes - Bronze, 500-450 BC

Mirror with Ionic Volutes - Bronze, 500-450 BC. Ancient mirrors were made of polished metals. The polishing in this example is long gone. Glass mirrors as we know them today began to appear by 79 AD.

 

When I was there, the Museum had an exhibit on Ancient Greece.

 

After visiting the Lew Wallace Study and Museum, I returned to Indianapolis, to connect with the friend I was visiting there. When planning my visit to the area, I discovered the Indianapolis Children's Museum, which boasts of being the world's biggest children's museum. Later, I was happy to find that my friend wanted to come with me to this place. We visited it on October 24, 2019.
