Bandits day out

Went a few weeks ago to this exhibit at the Boston museum of Fine arts. The whole place is wonderful(if you like art)The Samurai exhibit was incredible with some of the coolest helmets. My only problem was my camera died just as I got to that part, so I bought the book($55) that went with the exhibition(well worth the price)

This was my favorite helmet


My other favorite was some Greek Stamps and seals,they were about as big as your little finger with the most incredible engravings. So if you are in Boston till Aug 4th check it out
It was a great day
