Our current exhibition, Majestic: Royal and Imperial Objects from the Liang Yi Collection, focusses on pieces with significant documented provenances. For this talk, Daniel, our director of silver archiving, has selected a handful of European silver artefacts with fascinating back stories connected with crowned heads of Europe.
Owing to its high value, hallmarks, and frequently engraved armorials, we are able to confidently place a piece of silver at an exact moment in time, at a particular location, and surmise a possible reason for its commission. Additionally, silver is often individually mentioned in inventories and thus, we can build a picture of its ownership through the generations.
Join us for an evening of exploring the history of some of the most intriguing pieces of silver on display in the current exhibition.

我們當前的《御用物品展覽》聚焦於具有明確流傳記錄的藏品。為了此次講座，我們的白銀檔案研究總監 Daniel 特意挑選了幾件歐洲銀器，它們背後都蘊藏著與歐洲皇室相關的迷人故事。銀器價值連城，刻有印記與紋章，使我們能準確斷定其時空來源，並推測訂製的緣由。加上銀器常被單獨記錄於清冊中，其世代傳承的歸屬脈絡因而得以重現。歡迎您與我們共度一個夜晚，一同探索當前展覽中那些最引人入勝的銀器背後的故事。
