Musée Royal de Mariemont, Morlanwelz (Egypt)

This piece of fabric, decorated with human figures and floral motifs, is a splendid example of daily life objects that have survived from ancient Egypt. Textiles like these are also included in the #ICOMRedList of Egyptian Cultural Objects at Risk of illicit traffic.

Last year, for the first time in history, the @olympics were postponed. For the @olympicmuseum, the pandemic’s impact was twofold: not only was the Olympic calendar disrupted, but the museum itself was forced to close its doors indefinitely. In the face of this unprecedented situation, resilience brought about a period of intense creativity. 👩‍🎨
