The main work at my exhibition was dedicated to the Bayeux Tapestry which is an embroidered cloth 68,38 meters long and 50 centimeters tall that depicts the events leading up to the Norman Conquest of England in 1066. The cloth consists of 58 scenes embroidered on linen with colored woolen yams made in 1070. " It resembles a modern comic strip or movie storyboard and is so distinctive in its artistic style. It was designed to tell a story to a largely illiterate public, it is like a strip cartoon, racy, colorful with a good deal of blood and thunder and some ribaldry ". George Wingfield Digby
