Abstract
The recent inauguration of the new Museu Episcopal building in Vic, which took place in 2002, provided the opportunity for the most significant pieces in the museum’s collection of Coptic textiles to be exhibited to the public in its permanent exhibition rooms. In the course of 2006, restorers Carmen Masdeu Costa and Luz Morata García completed the restoration of five Coptic fragments and a Fatimid textile from the museum’s collection. In the present article they discuss these restoration processes, as well as the preventive preservation measures adopted. Rosa Maria Martín provides an introduction to the development of this Coptic collection at the MEV.
