The Fitzwilliam museum is an interesting place to visit. There are many rooms with paintings, sculptures and various artifacts. I was particularly interested in a vessel called Neck-amphola. This vessel was made a very long time ago in Athens, around 540 - 550 BC. The vessel is particularly fascinating because it is very detailed. The person who made it must have had a lot of skill. I would imagine that it would have taken a steady hand and an extremely long time to paint and make. This is just one of the many artifacts you can look at and find out about during a visit to this museum.
