Eastern Pediment Parthenon Sculpture
Eastern pedimental sculpture from the Parthenon depicts the birth of Athena from the head of Zeus. Much of the sculpture from the ancient structure is severely damaged from the passage of time, as well as an explosion, which occurred inside the Parthenon in 1687, as a result of the Turks storing gunpowder inside of the structure. The freestanding sculptures are currently on display in Room 18 of the British Museum in London, England.
