Referring to the more than three hundred emblematic antiquities from Greece and abroad, presented in the exhibition, she stressed that they are examples of this multifaceted and multidimensional concept that sealed the daily life of our ancestors as a necessary condition, inspired the epic and lyric poets and was crystallized in the texts of the philosophers of the fifth and fourth centuries BC, who connected it not only with outward physical appearance but also with inner qualities.
