Gender and Sexuality in the ancient world

Køn og Seksualitet i antikken omvisning

On this tour, we take a contemporary look at a selection of the Glyptotek’s ancient sculptures and their stories.

Learn more about the role of ‘gender’ and ‘sexuality’ for both gods and mortals in antiquity, as we delve into the interesting – and often ambiguous – gender roles and sexual orientations that characterized many of antiquity’s mythological figures.
