Antiquity, Silhouette Video > At DIA’s Ancient Greek and Roman Gallery

Visitors watch a nearly life-size silhouette projection of a slave mixing and serving wine to a man reclining on a couch at a Greek banquet. The vessels are identified in the video with a caption; the actual vessels are in cases in the gallery.

The goal is to help people appreciate the specialized forms required for mixing and serving wine in ancient Greece and to bring the objects to life.
