Join us for a special edition of our weekly online Get Together: London's Roman Amphitheatre

Age UK Islington is bringing to you a special edition of their online Get Together "Painting Appreciation" with two talks by Andrew Lane, Education Officer at Guildhall Art Gallery and London’s Roman Amphitheatre.

Heralded in the press in 1988 as one of the most important archaeological discoveries in London for over a century, the first talk will examine the discovery of London’s Roman Amphitheatre and will place it within the context of Roman London.

As new discoveries and research mean our understanding of Roman London is continually changing, Andrew's second talk will examine how the ancient city has been depicted over the years.

What's taking place?

1st Talk - The discovery of London’s Roman Amphitheatre and its place in the Roman city

2nd Talk - Picturing Roman London, creating a vision of the past
