Tapestry Wall Art And The Battle Of Hastings
The Battle Of Hastings offers one of the most famous of all tapestry weavings, The Bayeux Tapestry and it’s so long it was reproduced into some 76 or more individual scenes from this most famous battle. The Normans, of course, were lead by William the Conqueror. Before the Battle of Hastings, William was a powerful duke, a title he received from his father, Robert the Magnificent. He proved himself a worthy warrior at a very young age, even before he won the Battle of Hastings.
Harold, on the other hand, was an earl, who received the throne from Edward, and was the cause of the Battle of Hastings in 1066. Discover more exiting battles and historic times with Renaissance Tapestries and more.
