Last week the Telegraph devoted a major portion of its newspaper to the upcoming Pompeii and Herculaneum exhibition at the British Museum … I think I’ve managed to find all the links, all of which have plenty of images and all the Alastair Sooke things have videos. Some familiar names have penned most of these pieces. You can probably kill an hour or so perusing the following:
- Pompeii exhibition: a history of Pompeii and Herculaneum in numbers
- Pompeii exhibition: an extract from ‘The Last Days of Pompeii’ (Excerpt from The Last Days of Pompeii)
- Pompeii exhibition: Alastair Sooke behind the scenes at the British Museum (Video interview with the curator)
Pompeii exhibition: the food and drink of the ancient Roman cities - Pompeii exhibition: a timeline of Pompeii and Herculaneum(by Andrew Wallace-Hadrill and Joanne Berry)
- Pompeii exhibition at the British Museum: glorious pictures, from frescoes to mosaics
- Pompeii exhibition: beauty, fashion and jewellery – Roman style (Butterworth, Laurence, and Roberts)
- Pompeii exhibition: 50 shades of Pompeii?(Joanne Berry)
- Pompeii exhibition: Mary Beard on life in Pompeii and Herculaneum(Mary Beard, of course)
