Description: "[T]he exhibition documents the evolution, particularly between fourth and seventh centuries AD, of the shapes of clothes and funerary practices of the ancient Egyptian city of Antinopolis, revealed thanks to the excavations of its necropolis promoted by Émile Guimet and conducted by Albert Gayet in 1896-1908. The Musée des Tissus therefore offers today, to scholars as well as to non-specialist visitors, a unique opportunity to enjoy a collection of extraordinary objects, for the first time in a reconstituted unitary complex and proposed in an original key for reading the history of costume."--
