Challenge 346: The Nereid Monument
I was in the British Museum recently, when I walked through the room that contained the Nereid Monument. It must have been a fine structure in its day, surrounded by rolling pastures and ancient Greeks. Can we restore it to its former glory? High res is here.

Not really. Taken with my iPhone, no tripod, no flash, dark room, so it ended up very noisy - I've removed most of the noise but the quality is still poor. You'll just have to make it work! |

Breathtaking, Michael.........mine isn't nearly that ambitious! I've replaced the figures with others.........which, it just so happens, is the handiwork of my great grandfather, (from the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco CA.  |

Here's me again!!! Sorry folks, I'd posted an incomplete entry!! Now I guess, it's more easy to understand why I said: while the greeks gone out on vacations ! 
Fabulous entry,eggbox! looking to it I have a feeling that it's a music box, and at some moment the nereides are going to start dancing !!!
