I've been watching the King and Conqueror series with half an eye - I know "they" do it for atmosphere, but it would help if there was more light on the subject. Anyway, whinge over, it made me think about the Bayeux Tapestry which is available to view online via high definition photography .

Interested in embroidery? only 4 stitches involved (a great surprise). Interested in Medieval manuscripts? Top and bottom borders feature existing and fanciful animals and birds, and similar portrayals of daily life (ploughing the fields) and remember those cheeky marginal illustrations on manuscripts? well, some have made into the borders. Check out the aftermath of the battle which sills over into the lower border. . . Not to take away from the main events, starring in the much larger middle section
All natural dyes, wool embroidery on linen - faded over time, but easy to see just how vibrant it would have been when just completed.
Hope you enjoy it as much I did.
