Fifty objects from the Nicholson Museum's collection have been chosen, not for the archaeological significance or for their aesthetic beauty, but for the often facsinating story they have to tell. The Nicholson Museum, founded in 1860, is home to the largest collection of antiquities in Australia, with artefacts coming from Greece, Italy, Egypt, Cyprus, Northern Europe and the Middle East. 50 objects 50 stories is also a celebration of a man, and of the museum he founded, Sir Charles Nicholson."--Cover verso. aExhibition held at the Nicholson Museum from 5 June to 31 December 2012.10aNicholson, Charles,cSir,d1808-1903.20aNicholson MuseumvExhibitions. 0aClassical antiquitieszNew South WaleszSydneyvExhibitions. 0aArt, AncientzNew South WaleszSydneyvExhibitions. 0aArchaeological museums and collectionszNew South WaleszSydneyvExhibitions. aAustralian
