Description
London's British Museum houses the sculptures Lord Elgin took from the Parthenon , the temple on Athens ' Acropolis , over a period of time from 1802 to 1811 . The serene classicism of the Parthenon was decorated by the wild violence of a frieze depicting the battle between the lapiths and Centaurs , likely reflecting the Athenians ' claims to having triumphed over barbarism .
