Pergamum was home to a library said to house approximately 200,000 volumes, according to the writings of Plutarch. Built by Eumenes II and situated at the northern end of the Acropolis, it became one of the most important ancient libraries. Legend has it that Mark Antony later gave Cleopatra all of the 200,000 volumes at Pergamum for the Library at Alexandria as a wedding present, emptying the shelves and ending the dominance of the Library at Pergamum.[2] No index or catalog of the holdings at Pergamum exists today, making it impossible to know the true size or scope of this collection.
Historical accounts claim that the library possessed a large main reading room, lined with many shelves. An empty space was left between the outer walls and the shelves to allow for air circulation. This was intended to prevent the library from becoming overly humid in the warm climate of Anatolia and can be seen as an early attempt at library preservation. Manuscripts were written on parchment, rolled, and then stored on these shelves.[3]A statue of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, stood in the main reading room.

How I only wish I took this picture! Since there was technically no photography allowed, I shot it from the brochure I picked up.
I can't seem to find any information on the artist (not even on the museum's site), so any help regarding the matter would be appreciated.
