The Mouseion of Greek Alexandria – Palace Interiors
Alexander the Great established a Grecian empire ruling from India to Egypt. And it was in Alexandria, Egypt, that his successors founded two institutions that are close to my bookworm-heart: The Mouseion (Hall of the Muses; Museum) and the famed Library of Alexandria.
The Greeks are renown for their sculpture, like this 3rd century BCE sculpture of a muse.
