We just learned about the sculpture Lady in Blue.
Another famous sculpture is the Alexander Sarcophagus.
A sarcophagus is like a very fancy coffin, a place where the body of someone rich or powerful was buried after they died.
If someone was very famous, their sarcophagus would have a lot of art and sculptures on it.
This one was made of marble, and has some marks on it showing that it was painted in color long ago but has faded.
The carvings tell a story of Alexander the Great fighting the Persians, over 2,300 years ago.
