Early Christianity to the modern era
The story of the Kanakaria mosaics is particularly important because it offers a way to discuss the illegal removal of works of art and the return of cultural property with children.
After the museum, it is easy to visit the Cathedral of Saint John and continue the discussion of church painting inside an active place of worship.
At the museum we focus on specific reference points: Kanakaria, tesserae, a sixth-century icon and the use of different materials.
