Normans construct fortifications at Hastings and, hearing news of Harold, set off into battle, Bayeux Tapestry (wool embroidery on linen)
Auto-translated text View Original Source
Location
Musée de la Tapisserie, Bayeux, France
Medium
wool embroidery on linen
Date
c. 1070 AD (C11th AD)
Image description

Sewn by English women probably in Kent to a Norman brief, the embroidery illustrates the events leading to the Norman invasion and conquest of England by an army led by Duke William of Normandy and the death of King Harold at the Battle of Hastings in 1066. William orders a motte to be built at Hastings for the Norman camp and is told news of Harold. Normans burn a house forcing a mother and child to flee and William, in armour, prepares to lead his army from the town into battle
