Athens Acropolis Museum loans Kore Statue and other artifacts to Toronto

Beginning on March 12, 2022, visitors to the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM) in Toronto, can experience Kore 670 — a gift to a goddess, one of the best-preserved and most stunningly beautiful Korai statues from the Acropolis of Athens, according to greekreporter.com.

To mark 80 years of Canada-Greece relations, the ROM is taking part in an exchange of exhibits with the Acropolis Museum in Athens, with the Canadians sending two treasured vases to the museum’s Greek collections from June 20, 2022, to January 8, 2023.

In its 2,500-year history of existence, the Kore 670 has left Greece just a very few times.
