The Etruscans were the first major civilization on the Italian peninsula, yet the more well-known cultures of the ancient Greeks and Romans have overshadowed them. Exhibition curator Renée Dreyfus discusses organizing this comprehensive display that brings the Etruscans to the fore, featuring a diverse array of over 150 fascinating treasures from 28 museums.
