This exhibition explores depictions of the Underworld in the art of Greece and southern Italy and investigates how ancient Greeks envisioned what happens after death. It will contain an important amphora on loan from the Louvre depicting Herakles and Cerberus, and Dionysos with maenad and satyrs (ca. 520 BC – 510 BC).
