A night at the museum
/Some fascinating work this week narrating a documentary film for a major new Smithsonian exhibition called SHIPWRECKED: TANG TREASURES AND MONSOON WINDS.
The exhibition tells the story of the discovery of the coral-encrusted remains of an ancient shipwreck in the Java Sea, which contained tens of thousands of ceramic, gold and silver treasures - the largest find of Tang Dynasty artifacts ever discovered. Many of these priceless objects feature in the travelling exhibition, which starts at the Smithsonian Singapre before moving on to Washington DC and finally reaching the V&A in London in 2012. Well worth catching...
