Acerca de
Datos rápidos: Un solo coleccionista reunió una biblioteca extraordinaria de manuscritos, miniaturas y libros impresos raros de Asia, Europa y Medio Oriente. Encontrarás objetos que van desde pinturas persas portátiles del siglo XVII hasta Coranes iluminados intrincadamente y Biblias medievales.
Destacados: El coleccionista Sir Alfred Chester Beatty acumuló más de 20,000 objetos, y las galerías usan iluminación ámbar tenue y vitrinas forradas en terciopelo para hacer brillar la hoja de oro y los pigmentos. Una exhibición rotativa coloca un salterio del siglo XIII junto a un pergamino japonés del siglo XVII, creando sorprendentes conversaciones interculturales de cerca.
Consejos de expertos
- Wear soft-soled shoes, the galleries are compact and best explored on foot.
- Ask front-of-house about the rotating 'treasures' case where rarely displayed items are brought out for closer viewing.
- Follow posted photography rules, using no flash to protect delicate pigments and gold leaf.
- If short on time, skip the largest rooms and focus on the small calligraphy cases upstairs for intimate details.
