Curators' tour of Nero: the man behind the myth | #BritishMuseumTours

Video Description

Exhibition curators, Thorsten Opper and Francesca Bologna, takes us on an in-depth tour of the latest exhibition at the British Museum - Nero: The man behind the myth. The show challenges the traditional view of the emperor as a ruthless and eccentric tyrant, and follows the young ruler as he navigated a divided society and momentous events in the history of Rome.
