The north-east corner of the Parthenon Gallery, on the top-floor of the New Acropolis Museum, in the early evening. The marbles of the frieze, metopes and pediment statues are all aligned in the same relative positions and orientations as was the case when they were affixed to the Parthenon, while the large windows that run around all four sides of the gallery provide access to vast amounts of natural light and views across to the Acropolis and rest of Athens.
