The Getty Villa

So about a month ago I got the opportunity to go to the Getty Villa in Southern California and it was amazing! The Getty Villa is a recreation of a Roman Villa based on an actual villa preserved by Vesuvius at Herculaneum.

It was amazing to see the collection antiquities at the Villa, I am in awe of the talents and skill of ancient artists.

Possibly one of the coolest thing about the Getty is that they're an independently wealthy museum and as such they can do all sorts of cool things that most museums could only dream of doing.
