观看：国王和王后与马克龙和伯纳姆一起参加贝叶挂毯展览 查尔斯国王对大英博物馆“史无前例地借出”贝叶挂毯表示欢迎，称其为英国和法国之间亲密关系的“最佳象征”。
After viewing the medieval tapestry in London on Wednesday a week before it goes on public display, he spoke in French and English to guests including President Emmanuel Macron of France and Prime Minister Andy Burnham.
周三，他在伦敦参观了这幅中世纪挂毯，距离公开展示还有一周，他用法语和英语向包括法国总统埃马纽埃尔·马克龙和总理安迪·伯纳姆在内的嘉宾发表了讲话。
The King said he was the direct descendant of one of the key figures in the tapestry, William, Duke of Normandy, whose army invaded and defeated King Harold at the Battle of Hastings in 1066.
国王表示，他是诺曼底公爵威廉的直系后裔，诺曼底公爵的军队在 1066 年的黑斯廷斯战役中入侵并击败了哈罗德国王。
The tapestry "tells the story of the beginning of what I like to think of as the French side of my family's history in these islands", he added.
他补充说，这幅挂毯“讲述了我家族在这些岛屿上的法国历史的开始故事”。
President Macron and the King and Queen with the Bayeux Tapestry The Bayeux Tapestry is going to be open to the public in London from next week There was also some cross-Channel teasing about the outcome of the Norman invasion story, if not accusations of a stitch up.
马克龙总统和国王和王后与贝叶挂毯 贝叶挂毯将于下周起在伦敦向公众开放 即使没有指责，诺曼入侵故事的结果也有一些跨海峡的调侃。
President Macron commented at the finish of the tapestry on the "happy end, we're here", while Andy Burnham said: "Made in England, they couldn't bear to show the end… too difficult."
马克龙总统在挂毯结束时评论道“幸福的结局，我们在这里”，而安迪·伯纳姆则说：“英国制造，他们不忍心展示结局……太难了。”
The King, speaking inside the Great Court of the British Museum, said the opponents depicted in the tapestry - Normans and Anglo-Saxons - would have been delighted to see this togetherness between France and the UK - "two great nations, which share such fundamental values".
国王在大英博物馆大中庭发表讲话时表示，挂毯中描绘的对手——诺曼人和盎格鲁撒克逊人——会很高兴看到法国和英国之间的团结——“两个拥有共同基本价值观的伟大国家”。
"The tapestry's story is one of ambition and uncertainty, of oaths and journeys, of ships, councils, kings, comets and consequences," said the King.
国王说：“这幅挂毯的故事是关于野心和不确定性、誓言和旅程、船只、议会、国王、彗星和后果的故事。”
"Yet it is not merely an English story, nor only a Norman one.
“然而，这不仅仅是一个英国故事，也不仅仅是一个诺曼故事。
Indeed, from the moment of its creation, it may have brought together our two peoples," he said, weaving in the historic importance of the artwork.
事实上，从它创作的那一刻起，它就可能将我们两国人民聚集在一起，”他说，并体现了这件艺术品的历史重要性。
Burnham joked about his own new role as prime minister - saying the tapestry "showed a new leader emerging from a northern territory and travelling to the south of England".
伯纳姆拿自己作为首相的新角色开玩笑，称这幅挂毯“展示了一位新领导人从北部领土崛起，前往英格兰南部”。
Describing the tapestry as a "masterpiece", President Macron said a loan had first been proposed in the 1930s, but he was delighted that the idea had come to fruition. He spoke of the exhibition in London as an example of how "we are united" and a "reminder of what our countries can do if they join forces", addressing an audience including historian Dame Mary Beard and former prime minister Theresa May.
马克龙总统将这幅挂毯描述为一件“杰作”，并表示贷款最早是在 20 世纪 30 年代提出的，但他很高兴这个想法得以实现。 他将伦敦的展览视为“我们如何团结”的一个例子，并“提醒我们各国如果联合起来可以做什么”，并向包括历史学家玛丽·比尔德女爵士和前首相特蕾莎·梅在内的观众发表讲话。
The 70m (230ft) tapestry, originally embroidered in England but kept for centuries in France, tells the story of the Norman Conquest and the Battle of Hastings in 1066.
这幅 70m（230 英尺）长的挂毯最初在英国刺绣，但在法国保存了几个世纪，讲述了诺曼征服和 1066 年黑斯廷斯战役的故事。
The King said the tapestry was the 'best possible symbol' of the closeness between the UK and France.
国王表示，挂毯是英国和法国之间亲密关系的“最佳象征”。
President Macron said the exhibition showed how the two countries are 'united' The King and Queen, Macron and his wife Brigitte, and Burnham and his wife Marie-France van Heel were given the chance to see the historic embroidery in the atmospheric darkness of the British Museum.
马克龙总统表示，展览展示了两国如何“团结” 国王和王后、马克龙和他的妻子布丽吉特、伯纳姆和他的妻子玛丽-弗朗斯·范·希尔有机会在大英博物馆的黑暗氛围中参观这件具有历史意义的刺绣。
It's displayed in a long glass illuminated cabinet, with the figures remarkably vivid for something almost a 1,000 years old, and visitors file along, following the story of the Norman invasion.
它陈列在一个带照明的长玻璃柜中，其中的人物对于近 1,000 年前的历史来说非常生动，游客们鱼贯而行，跟随诺曼入侵的故事。
The royal visitors had a close look at key scenes in the tapestry, including the Coronation of King Harold and his death in battle.
王室来访者仔细观看了挂毯上的关键场景，包括哈罗德国王的加冕礼和他的战死。
It's filled with details of medieval life and the King commented on Normans pulling a cart with "an enormous amount of wine".
它充满了中世纪生活的细节，国王评论说诺曼人拉着一辆装有“大量葡萄酒”的车。
Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy said the final scene, showing King Harold with an arrow in his eye, was what she found the most dramatic.
文化大臣丽莎·南迪表示，最后一幕哈罗德国王眼中中箭，是她认为最戏剧化的场景。
"We've just been talking to all the schoolchildren, and that's the bit that they really liked and really registered with them," she said.
“我们刚刚与所有学童进行了交谈，这是他们真正喜欢并真正注册的部分，”她说。
"And it's amazing actually that a tapestry that is 1,000 years old can still inspire people to feel such emotion and capture such drama after all this time."
“事实上，令人惊奇的是，一幅已有 1000 年历史的挂毯在这么久之后仍然能够激发人们感受到这样的情感并捕捉到这样的戏剧。”
Nandy said she was inspired by the way this epic depiction of conflict had "come to symbolise probably the biggest act of friendship on behalf of the French nation".
南迪说，这部对冲突的史诗般的描述“可能象征着法国民族最大的友谊之举”，这让她深受启发。
Sending the tapestry to the British Museum was announced by Macron during a state visit to the UK in July 2025, as an emblem of the strong partnership between the countries.
马克龙在 2025 年 7 月对英国进行国事访问期间宣布将这幅挂毯送往大英博物馆，作为两国之间牢固伙伴关系的象征。
There had been fears that moving the fragile tapestry could risk causing damage, but French government sources said display conditions at the British Museum were "ideal".
有人担心移动脆弱的挂毯可能会造成损坏，但法国政府消息人士表示，大英博物馆的展示条件“理想”。
The French authorities welcomed the way that visitors in London would see the tapestry lying flat, rather than upright, with this believed to be better for the conservation of the fibres.
法国当局对伦敦游客看到挂毯平放而不是直立的方式表示欢迎，认为这更有利于保护纤维。
It also allows viewers to get a clearer view of all the animals, plants and often bawdy images sewn around the margins of the main narrative.
它还可以让观众更清楚地看到所有动物、植物以及主要叙事边缘缝制的淫秽图像。
It is believed the final scenes of the tapestry have been lost or destroyed, as it has not always had such careful owners.
据信挂毯的最后场景已经丢失或被毁，因为它并不总是有如此细心的主人。
In the 18th Century, during the French Revolution, it was rescued from being cut up to make covers for soldiers' carts.
18 世纪法国大革命期间，它被拯救出来，不再被切割成士兵车的盖子。
The tapestry tells the story of the Norman invasion of England in 1066 This trip to the British Museum is the first official joint engagement carried out together by the King and Burnham since he became prime minister in July.
挂毯讲述了 1066 年诺曼人入侵英格兰的故事 这次大英博物馆之行是国王自七月就任首相以来与伯纳姆的首次正式联合活动。
French government sources said the occasion was also an opportunity for President Macron to get to know Burnham.
法国政府消息人士称，这次活动也是马克龙总统了解伯纳姆的机会。
Support for Ukraine, the conflict in the Middle East, and relations with the European Union were among the topics for the two leaders, said French sources. Small boats crossing the Channel were likely to be discussed, as well as those Norman versions embroidered on the tapestry.
法国消息人士称，对乌克兰的支持、中东冲突以及与欧盟的关系是两位领导人讨论的话题。 人们可能会讨论穿越英吉利海峡的小船，以及绣在挂毯上的诺曼版本。
The Bayeux Tapestry records a much earlier chapter in Anglo-French relations, when King William of Normandy fought King Harold for the throne of England.
贝叶挂毯记录了英法关系的早期篇章，当时诺曼底国王威廉与哈罗德国王争夺英格兰王位。
Using dyed wool stitched onto linen, it shows the competing claims to the throne, the Normans sailing across the Channel and the decisive Battle of Hastings, in which Harold was killed, allowing William the Conqueror to become monarch.
它使用染色羊毛缝在亚麻布上，展示了对王位的争夺、诺曼人横渡英吉利海峡以及决定性的黑斯廷斯战役，哈罗德在这场战役中被杀，征服者威廉成为君主。
The tapestry, believed to have been embroidered by English women for the new Norman rulers in the 1070s, includes 58 separate scenes, with 627 human figures, 737 animals, 37 ships and 23 trees, with a Latin narration accompanying the images.
据信，这幅挂毯是由英国妇女在 1070 年代为诺曼新统治者刺绣的，包括 58 个独立的场景，有 627 个人物、737 只动物、37 艘船和 23 棵树，图像旁有拉丁语旁白。
