The only collection of mediaeval Christian paintings from the Nile Valley in Europe, the Faras Gallery is to be re-opened at the National Museum in Warsaw. Culture.pl’s camera looks behind the scenes of the exhibition’s formation, to the conservation lab, taking part in the difficult process of hanging the paintings in the gallery. Stefan Jakobielski, an archeologist, speaks about the moment of the paintings’ discovery in the 60s during an expedition he undertook.
