Kate Middleton Wears Face Mask for Visit to London's V&A Museum

Kate
Middleton sported a face mask as she took a trip to London’s Victoria and
Albert Museum to view a special new exhibition on Thursday.

Kate
viewed Fabergé in London:
Romance To Revolution and showed her sophisticated eye for detail,
according to the curator.

Wearing
black wide-legged trousers and a paisley-print Ralph Lauren blouse. She
also adhered to the latest guidelines with her black face mask.

During
her latest trip to the museum, the Duchess praised those behind the display,
which features the largest collection of Faberge’s well-known Imperial Easter
Eggs in a generation, several of which are being shown in the UK for the first
time.

 

The
collection also includes three items lent by the Queen, including the Colonnade
Egg, Basket of Flowers Egg and the Mosaic Egg. 

 

Kate
was accompanied on her tour of the exhibition by V&A director Tristram Hunt
and shown around by curator Kieran McCarthy. Speaking after the visit, Mr
McCarthy said: Kate had been “fascinated
by the whole subject”.

 

He added: “That came through over and over
again, just ‘How did they do that? Why does that look like that?’
There
was a lot of why and wherefore in the discussion, which was very interesting
because it takes sophistication to look beyond seeing the spectacle to
actually probe into the details, and that was there.”

Items
in the exhibition include the long lost Third Imperial Egg, discovered by a
scrap dealer in 2011 after it went missing in 1964, the largest Imperial Egg –
the Moscow Kremlin Egg -inspired by the architecture of the Dormition Cathedral
in Moscow and featuring a music box that plays Tsar Nicholas II’s favorite
hymn, and the Alexander Palace Egg, which contains a model of the palace
inside.
