A Bayeux Tapestry Homage

The Bayeux Tapestry is nearly 70 meters (230 feet) long and is all done in embroidery (stitched with wool yarn on linen), not a woven tapestry.  It shows the events leading up to the Battle of Hastings in 1066- When the Normans (French) invaded England (and won....) It is now on a rare loan from France to the British Museum in London. 600 characters, 500 animals of all kinds, 200 horses, 50 trees...all stitched by hand with care!
There are some controversial scenes and hidden symbols within the embroidery, and it is fascinating to see in real life - which I have been lucky enough to see. 
This set is my homage to the 960th anniversary of this event and the incredible work of art that depicts it!
