贝叶挂毯近日在伦敦大英博物馆开启公众展览,这是这件中世纪杰作近1000年来首次回到英国1。这件长70米、包含58个场景的刺绣艺术品记录了1066年诺曼人征服英格兰的历史事件1。展览期间预计将吸引100万访客,门票已在展出前数月售罄1。展览将持续至2027年7月1。
贝叶挂毯获得了英法两国政府的高度重视,被视为两国友谊的象征1。该艺术品的保险价值达9.6亿欧元(约11亿美元)1,其运输和展示经历了数年外交谈判和高度安全措施1。英国国王查理三世和法国总统马克龙已进行了私人参观1。挂毯在法国巴约城保存了近1000年,历史学家相信其由英国东南部的女性绣工制作1。获得2018年的借展协议后,因COVID-19疫情和英脱欧事务延迟,最终在去年由马克龙访英期间确认1。
The Bayeux Tapestry, a 70-meter medieval embroidered masterpiece depicting the Norman Conquest of England in 1066, has opened to the public at the British Museum, marking its first return to British soil in nearly a millennium 1. The 230-foot-long artwork, comprising 58 scenes, is insured at a value of 9.6 billion euros, approximately 11 billion dollars 1. Museum officials expect the exhibition to draw one million visitors, with tickets already sold out for months, and the display will remain on view through July 2027 1.
The tapestry has been preserved in the French city of Bayeux for nearly 1,000 years, with historians believing it was created by embroiderers from southeastern England 1. Its journey to London involved years of diplomatic negotiations and heightened security protocols, ultimately facilitated by a 2018 loan agreement that was delayed by COVID-19 and Brexit before being finalized during French President Macron's state visit to Britain last year 1. Both the British and French governments have embraced the exhibition as a symbol of bilateral friendship, with King Charles III and President Macron conducting private viewings of the tapestry 1.
