This exhibition presents highlights from the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston's extensive collection of Nubian objects and features superbly crafted jewelry, metalwork, and sculpture exhibiting the wealth and splendor of Nubian society.

This exhibition is presented in English and Spanish. Esta exhibición se presenta en inglés y en español.
