The Bayeux Tapestry is a monumental 11th-century embroidery nearly 230 feet long, depicting the events leading up to the Norman conquest of England in 1066, culminating in the Battle of Hastings. Commissioned by Bishop Odo of Bayeux, William the Conqueror's half-brother, and likely crafted in England, the tapestry serves as a vivid visual chronicle of this pivotal moment in medieval history. Beyond its historical narrative, it offers invaluable insights into the art, culture, and society of the time, showcasing detailed representations of clothing, architecture, and weaponry. Its survival over nearly a millennium makes it an exceptional artifact for understanding the medieval period. Fine in near fine, faintly offset publisher's slipcase. Publisher's grey cloth, titled and decorated in gilt, housed in matching publisher's slipcase with illustrated onlay.
