I'd just like to share my favourite part of the #BayeuxTapestry as it always makes me smile

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 #bayeuxtapestry 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 #DieHardIsDefinitelyAChistmasMovie

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...
Wow, that's keen! "French team to build replica of William the Conqueror’s warship"

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. #BayeuxTapestry #AngloSaxons
I love #lecture series. Subscribed to the The Great Courses on #Prime & am currently working my way through Dr. Jennifer Paxton's #England : From the Fall of #Rome to the #NormanConquest.

Tip voor als je de komende maanden in de buurt van #bayeuxtapestry 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! #HockneyPainting
