Andros Archaeological Museum

The unquestioned highlight of this excellent little museum is an exquisite 2nd-century BC marble copy of the bronze Hermes of Andros by Praxiteles, the handsome life-sized god standing naked but for a robe draped nonchalantly over one shoulder. A Roman-period marble Artemis manages to be extraordinarily dynamic in her shimmering dress despite being headless and nearly limbless.
