British Museum History Architecture Departments History The British Museum is a museum of human history and culture in London. Its collections， which number more than 7 million objects， are amongst the largest and most comprehensive in the world and originate from all continents， illustrating and documenting the story of human culture from its beginning to the present. Sir Hans Sloane， founder of the British Museum The origins of the British Museum lie in the will of the physician， naturalist and collector， Sir Hans Sloane (1660-1753). Sloane wanted his collection of more than 71，000 objects， library and herbarium to be preserved intact after his death. He bequeathed it to King George II for the nation in return for payment of £20，000 to his heirs. If refused， the collection was to be offered to centres of learning abroad. A large and influential group of Trustees was charged with overseeing the disposition of his estate. Sir Hans Sloan On 7 June 1753 King George II gave his formal assent to the Act of Parliament which established the British Museum. The British Museum was the first of a new kind of museum - national， belonging to neither church nor king， freely open to the public and aiming to collect everything. Left to Right: Montagu House， Townley Gallery and Sir Robert Smirke's west wing under construction (July 1828) In the early days of the British Museum the collection was divided in three : Printed Books (including prints); Manuscripts (including medals); Natural and Artificial Productions (everything else). The nineteenth century: expansion and discovery In the early part of the nineteenth century there were a number of high profile acquisitions. These included the Rosetta Stone (1802)， the Townley collection of classical sculpture (1805)， and the Parthenon sculptures (1816). In 1823 the gift to the nation by George IV of his father's library (the King's Library) prompted the construction of today's quadrangular building designed by Sir Robert Smirke (1780–1867). By 1857， both the quadrangular building and the round Reading Room had been constructed. The twentieth century: providing a public service The twentieth century saw a great expansion in public services. The first summary guide to the Museum was published in 1903 and the first guide lecturer was appointed in 1911. By the 1970s， there was an active programme of gallery refurbishments and an education service and publishing company had been established. In 1973 the library became part of a new organisation， the British Library. This organisation remained at the Museum until 1997， when the books left Bloomsbury for a new building at St Pancras. Architecture The core of today’s building， the four main wings of the British Museum， was designed in the nineteenth century. Other important architectural developments include the round Reading Room with its domed ceiling and the Norman Foster designed Great Court which opened in 2000. By the start of the nineteenth century， Montagu House could no longer contain the Museum's vastly increased collection and the trustees set up a Buildings Committee in 1802 to plan for expansion. The first extension， the Townley Gallery， was constructed 1804 -8 to provide space for the classical sculpture collection of Charles Townley and for Egyptian antiquities. Built in the Palladian style(16世纪意大利建筑家-帕拉第奥建筑型式)， it was located in the space currently occupied by the southern section of the Egyptian Sculpture Gallery(浅浮雕）. It was demolished in 1842-6 to make way for the Smirke building. King Edward VII's galleries King Edward VII's galleries were designed by Sir John Burnet (1859-1939)， in the Beaux Arts style. They face Montague Place to the north and were intended as the first phase of an expansion of the Museum which aimed to replace all surrounding properties， the freeholds of which had been purchased from the Bedford Estates in 1894-5. However， protection orders on surrounding buildings mean that the scheme can now never be completed. The foundation stone was laid by King Edward VII in 1907 and the building was opened by King George V and Queen Mary in 1914. King’s Library The King's Library was a royal collection of books created by King George III and donated to the nation. A gallery， named after the collection， was built at the British Museum in 1827 to house them. It is the oldest room in the Museum and now home to the permanent exhibition Enlightenment: Discovering the world in the eighteenth century. The original collection and gallery Restoring the King’s Library gallery The Great Court Designed by Foster and Partners， the Queen Elizabeth II Great Court transformed the Museum’s inner courtyard into the largest covered public square in Europe. It is a two-acre space enclosed by a spectacular glass roof with the world-famous Reading Room at its centre. 博物馆外观 大英博物馆南入口 白翼大楼 Departments Department of Ancient Egypt and Sudan Department of Greek and Roman Antiquities Department of the Middle East Department of Prints and Drawings版画和素描馆 Department of Asia Department of Africa， Oceania and the Americas Department of Coins and Medals Department of Prehistory and Europe史前及欧洲馆 Department of Conservation， Documentation and Science Libraries and Archives Rosetta Stone埃及罗塞塔碑（拿破仑在埃及溃败后英国获得的一批埃及文物中最珍贵的一个，抢来的。） The Parthenon Galleries - Temple of Athena Parthenos (447-438 B.C) 帕台农神庙的大理石雕刻(1816年通过割地赔款获得，希腊人目前要求归还，但英国人不还) 花 瓶 底 部 波特兰花瓶(Portland Vase) 波特兰花瓶，罗马宝石玻璃制品，作与西元1世纪；现藏大英博物馆。 制作时期：罗马帝国时期 在深蓝色玻璃上饰以白色图案的古罗马花瓶(1世纪)，是现存最精美的古罗马宝石玻璃制品(cameo glass)。18世纪时属波特兰公爵所有。在维多利亚时代有很多的仿制品。其中以威基伍德(Josiah Wedgwood，1790)和诺思伍德(John Northwood，1876)仿制的最为逼真。 The Department of Prints and Drawings contains the national collection of Western prints and drawings， in the same way as the National Gallery and Tate hold the national collection of paintings. It is one of the top three collections of its kind in the world. There are approximately 50，000 drawings and over two million prints dating from the beginning of the fifteenth century up to the present day. 顾凯之<<女史箴图>> Mandarin fish (元代鳜鱼图案青花瓷盘) 著名的藏品： 大英博物馆藏道教人物像 大英博物馆藏 元代鳜鱼图案青花瓷盘 埃及罗塞塔碑（Rosetta Stone，拿破仑在埃及溃败后英国获得的一批埃及文物中最珍贵的一个，抢来的。） 雅典帕一农神庙的大理石雕刻（1816年通过割地赔款获得，希腊人目前要求归还，但英国人不还） 法老阿孟霍普特三世头像（Amenhotep）（1823年购得） 拉美西斯二世头像（Ramesses）（1818年由英国驻埃及总领事捐献，是割地赔款时拿的） 弗兰克斯首饰盒（Franks）（1867年获得，是割地赔款时拿的） 波特兰花瓶（Portland Vase） 夏洛蒂·勃朗特留学比利时布鲁塞尔追求教授写的的情书， 夏洛蒂·勃朗特当家教时追求有妇女之夫的教授的情书。 夏洛蒂·勃朗特谩骂简奥斯丁的信笺原稿。 夏洛蒂·勃朗特在报纸上与众三流写手对骂的照片 镇馆之宝 这幅画作为陪葬品放在亚尼的墓中，全长二十四公尺，用长达六十章的篇幅，描绘死者在来世获得永生所需的咒文和约定事项。本书截取亚尼在死者之国接受生前善行和恶性审判的一段，为整卷画作中最精彩的部分。收藏家佛里斯班士于1887年在尼罗河中游克索西岸的墓室中发现，是众多以草纸记录的《死者之书》当中保存最好、最出色的，堪称为古埃及美术中至于极致的作品，也是古埃及生死观的明白表现。所谓《死者之书》，及记载死者为获永生所必经的各种磨练、审判、所需的咒文以及到最后获得永生的画卷，通常以草纸绘成。 埃及死者在通向复活之路时，必须於棺木中置放《死者之书》。死者之书大部分以纸莎草写成，记录死者生平好恶，以及奥西里斯Osiris的审判等情节。 《死者之书》通常为长卷形式，依财富多寡，分成数十个，甚至更多的段落。流传至今最有名的为《亚尼的死者之书》，最有名的段落则是「秤心仪式」。
