Allard Pierson Museum
is the archaeological museum of the University of Amsterdam. The ancient civilisations of ancient Egypt, the Near East, the Greek World, Etruria and the Roman Empire are revived in this museum. Art-objects and utensils, dating from 4000 B.C. till 500 A.D. give a good impression of everyday-life, mythology and religion in Antiquity. There are also several scale models of ancient temples and buildings. In the ancient Egypt department there is a room dedicated to death with mummies, sarcophagi and a film showing the process of mummification. Our so-called plaster-cast-attic, only to be visited with a guided tour, shows copies of world-famous Roman and Greek statues.

Collectiegeschiedenis

De verzameling van het Mauritshuis is eigendom van de Neder-landse staat. Het oudste deel van de verzameling bestaat uit de schilderijen die in de 18de eeuw in het bezit waren van stadhouder prins Willem V van Oranje-Nassau (1748-1806). Deze collectie werd in 1816 door diens zoon koning Willem I (1772-1843) overgedragen aan de Nederlandse Staat. Daarmee ontstond het Koninklijk Kabinet van Schilderijen.

De collectie van het Mauritshuis is in twee eeuwen flink uitgebreid. In 1822 herbergde het museum nog ongeveer 200 schilderijen, nu zijn dat er een kleine 800.
