The Great Tapestry of Scotland的点评
点评：Less than an hour's train ride from Edinburgh is Galashiels, a border town that used to be known for its textile industry. And in this delightful little town is the purpose-built building that houses the Great Tapestry of Scotland. It opened in 2021, right in the middle of COVID, so it probably hasn't got the attention it deserves.
Actually it's not a tapestry in the traditional sense; it's embroidered. There are more than 160 one metre square panels that depict the history of Scotland. More than 1000 stitchers were involved in taking the artist's and historian's interpretation of Scottish history and stitching all aspects of Scottish life, culture, regions, battles, famous and not so famous people, covering from 420 million years ago to 1999, when Scotland got its own Parliament.
The level of detail in the stitching is amazing, and each group or individual who worked on a panel had a small space allocated to identify themselves. There's also a series of threads going up the staircase that contains the names of every stitcher who contributed.
Well worth a visit!!!

翻译：从爱丁堡乘火车不到一小时即可到达加拉希尔斯，这是一个边境小镇，曾以纺织业闻名。在这个迷人的小镇里，有一座专门建造的建筑，里面陈列着苏格兰大挂毯。它于 2021 年开放，正值新冠疫情期间，所以可能没有得到应有的关注。
实际上，它不是传统意义上的挂毯；它是刺绣的。有 160 多块一平方米的面板描绘了苏格兰的历史。1000 多名缝纫工参与了这项工作，他们根据艺术家和历史学家对苏格兰历史的解读，将苏格兰生活、文化、地区、战争、名人和不那么出名的人的各个方面缝制起来，涵盖了从 4.2 亿年前到 1999 年苏格兰成立议会的时期。
缝纫的细节程度令人惊叹，每个在面板上工作的小组或个人都有一小块空间来表明自己的身份。楼梯上还有一系列的线，上面写着每一位参与贡献的缝纫者的名字。
非常值得一看！！！
