Happy Friday! Also my alt-text is really wonky. Apologies to all Medievalists for my unintentional slaughtering of history.

The Battle of Hastings in south-east England on 14 October 1066 saw the defeat of the Anglo-Saxon king Harold II (r. Jan-Oct 1066) by the invading Norman army led by William, Duke of Normandy (reigned from 1035). After a day of heavy fighting, the Norman cavalry eventually proved more effective than the Anglo-Saxon infantry.

The missing final scene of the recently found in the vaults of Bayeux Cathedral, showing that the Normans/Anglo-Saxons knew back then what many feel today: that Die Hard *is* a Christmas movie! Merry Christmas everyone x

Okay, as promised, I've been dying to share this with y'all. This print actually crossed my worktable last Thursday, and you bet I took more than one picture. It's too good NOT to show in detail and in sections.

Anyway, remember the Bayeux Tapestry? This print is a "modernized" take on the Norman conquest of England, and it's funny as hell.

There's no artist name nor title anywhere, so I'm afraid I can't give proper credit. Anyway, behold...

I'd forgotten about these excellent piece of art, created in response to Putin and the Kremlin going on about Anglo-Saxons.

I don't know the creator, so if anyone knows, please let me know.

Tip voor als je de komende maanden in de buurt van in Bayeux bent. De tijdelijke Hockney-tentoonstelling in het museum waar ook het wereldberoemde Tapijt hangt niet overslaan want die is zeer de moeite waard!
