DEEDS CALENDAR: Wrapped in splendour. Reconstructions of medieval garments from Nubia – Bode-Museum | until 12.04.2025

The reconstructions are based on wall paintings from the cathedral of Faras. These are now in the collections of the National Museum in Warsaw and the Sudan National Museum in Khartoum. These magnificent loans enter into dialogue with selected textiles from the collections of the Museum of Byzantine Art and the Museum of Islamic Art. The exhibition runs from 6 February to 12 April 2025.
