Goulandris Museum

The Goulandris Museum of Cycladic Art is a museum located in Athens, Greece, that specializes in the Cycladic culture. The museum was founded in 1986 by Nicholas and Dolly Goulandris. It is housed in the Villa Ilias, a neoclassical mansion on the slopes of the Athenian hills. The museum's collection consists of over 5,000 objects, most of which are from the Cycladic culture (3rd millennium BC). The collection includes sculptures, figurines, pottery, and other objects from the Cycladic islands of Naxos, Paros, and Andros. The museum's permanent collection is displayed in two galleries: the "Main Gallery" and the "Small Gallery". The "Main Gallery" displays sculptures and figurines from the Cycladic period, while the "Small Gallery" displays pottery and other objects from the Cycladic period. The museum also hosts temporary exhibitions of art from the Cycladic culture and other cultures.
