The Musée du Louvre’s Greek art collections, and particularly its terracotta figurines, are a goldmine of information on daily life in ancient times. The figurines found in houses, tombs and sanctuaries provide an accurate reflection of the lifestyle of the Ancient Greeks between the 6th and 1st centuries BC, as explored in this book through the themes of childhood, life in the home, trades, leisure and death.
