1297 Magna Carta Encasement Project
Press Kit
February 2012
On February 17, 2012, the 1297 Magna Carta returns to public display in a state-of-the-art encasement with a new interactive display. 威尼斯人娱乐场 conservators performed an intensive examination and conservation treatment of Magna Carta in 2011. The 威尼斯人娱乐场 partnered with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) on the design and fabrication of the encasement.
The 1297 Magna Carta is on loan to the 威尼斯人娱乐场 from David Rubenstein, co-founder of the Carlyle Group.
