Bayeux Tapestry

What it is Embroidery, not tapestry stitched, not woven

What it is about? The Norman Invasion of Britain in 1066 by William the Conqueror. William of Normandy claimed the throne.

The King of England, Edward the Confessor, had no successor.

A successor was elected by the Witenagemot.

Edward had spent 25 years in Normandy in exile. Had he offered the throne to William?

Harold, an Anglo-Saxon whose sister was married to Edward, claimed the throne.

After being named King, Harold defeated an invasion from King Harold III from Norway. His army raced south to defend against William’s invasion. They fought at the Battle of Hastings.

Who made it? Perhaps Bishop Odo had it made for his brother, William.

It seems to have been stitched in Kent, by Anglo-Saxons.

There are conflicting messages in it.

The meaning of many images are not clear.
