Cambridge Festival: Curator's Tour

Join Curator Dr Susanne Turner on this tour of the Museum of Classical Archaeology's Cast Gallery. The Museum houses a rather unusual collection: instead of original statues, the Cast Gallery is packed with more than 600 historical plaster casts of Greek and Roman sculptures — and find out how thinking about replication might impact how we look at the ancient world.
