Kythira Collection of Byzantine and Post-Byzantine Art

The collection is housed in the Post-Byzantine church of the Ascension at Livadi, which was ceded by the Diocese of Kythera. It contains characteristic examples of the artistic production of the island, ranging from the Early Christian to the Post-Byzantine period: wall paintings and a floor mosaic detached from churches, portable icons, and a few items of silverwork, metalwork and pottery.
