Antoine Verney is the chief curator of the Bayeux Museum, known for his expertise in the preservation of the Bayeux tapestry. In 2018, he expressed deep concerns about the tapestry's fragile condition, stating that even minor movements were risky. His views contributed to the decision against loaning the tapestry at that time, but recent assessments have led to a change, allowing for its upcoming loan to the British Museum.
