先月から創立250周年記念大英博物館の至宝展が東京都美術館で催されています。で、チョコエッグ(現在のチョコQ)ですっかり有名になった海洋堂が北陸製菓と大英博物館「古代エジプトの遺産」フィギアを作ってました。箱の大きさにビックリしたものの購入。出てきたのは一番人気のなさそうなラムセス二世神殿の王名表。ガッカリ。紅茶によく合うパディントンハニークッキー(と箱に書いてある)2枚入りで340円。これ、大英博物館のミュージアムショップでも発売するそうですが、ロンドンで売れるかな〜。
The exhibition Treasures from the World's Cultures: The British Museum after 250 Years is held in the Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum from last month. I found out that Kaiyodo (well known figure maker after Choco Egg which changed the name to ChocoQ) has made figures of the inheritance of ancient Egypt from British Museum. I bought one (the box is huge!) and List of the kings of Egypt from the Temple of Ramesses 2 was inside. This is the most un-popular one, I guess. It is ¥340 comes with 2 little Paddington honey cookies which matches black tea well (that is what says on a box). It sells in a museum shop in British Museum. I'm not sure if people buy it in Lodon.

大英博物館と言えば、世界各国からの略奪品の山。エルギン・マーブルズの様に奪われた貴重な文化遺産を返して欲しいという国はたくさん。でも、そんな遺産をたくさん持っている大英博物館の展覧会を是非、見てみたい!という訳なのか、ものすごく混んでるようです。週末は入場まで110分待ちとか。混雑状況確認してみてね。
The British Museum keeps lots of loots from all over the world. There are many countries wanting the British Museum to return the taken precious cultural heritage like the Elgin Marbles. This exhibition is extremely crowded by people who want to see those British Museum' cultural heritage, you have to queue for 110 minutes to get in the Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum in a weekend. You can check how long you have to wait online.
