Opus Anglicanum : Masterpieces of English Medieval Embroidery
1 Oct 2016-5 Feb 2017
V&A
London SW7 2RL
Overview
From the 12th to the 15th centuries, England was internationally famous mainly for one type of artistic product – elaborate luxury embroideries. These objects, were sought after by Kings, Popes and Cardinals, and often bear elaborate imagery. This exhibition aims to bring together an outstanding range of the surviving examples of this celebrated period in England's artistic production to both highlight the exquisite craftsmanship and to explore the world in which they were created. Alongside the magnificent embroideries, many from the V&A’s own collection, will be related material in other media such as paintings, manuscripts, metalwork and sculpture.
