Heraklion Archaeological Museum, Heraklion
Knossos gives up its art to this building: the Heraklion Archaeological Museum, a long modernist block by the Venetian walls, holds the Minoan world more completely than anywhere else on earth. The bull-leaping fresco, the Phaistos Disc with its undeciphered spiral of signs, the Snake Goddesses, the rock-crystal rhyton — the palace's portable genius is here, at eye level, in the city that grew from the palace's own port. The museum was comprehensively renewed in 2014, and its calm horizontal architecture is the right frame: nothing competes with the objects.

About this artwork
Knossos gives up its art to this building: the Heraklion Archaeological Museum, a long modernist block by the Venetian walls, holds the Minoan world more completely than anywhere else on earth. The bull-leaping fresco, the Phaistos Disc with its undeciphered spiral of signs, the Snake Goddesses, the rock-crystal rhyton — the palace's portable genius is here, at eye level, in the city that grew from the palace's own port. The museum was comprehensively renewed in 2014, and its calm horizontal architecture is the right frame: nothing competes with the objects. Morning is partly cloudy, cloud cover about 61 percent, about 14.0°C, and dry.
