⚔️ #Onthisday in 1066, the Battle of Hastings was fought. Nearly 1,000 years on, the Bayeux Tapestry remains one of history's most powerful visual narratives & is the medieval version of a #panorama. Are you going to see it at the @britishmuseum.bsky.social? #BayeuxTapestry #panoramasky

My #UoLTapestry #BayeuxTapestry story for the archive: My favourite part of the Tapestry is the episode at the Mont Saint-Michel, when Harold Godwinson rescues William's men from the quicksand. This summer, I retraced their footsteps by the Couesnon River, to experience the quicksand for myself. 1/2

Happy Battle of Hastings day! Fought #OnThisDay in 1066

Here's one of my favourite lesser-known parts of the #BayeuxTapestry!

Harold and his men hitch up their tunics and wade into the sea, while he performs the impressive feat of carrying a dog under one arm and a hawk on the other 💪

As @lvhicks.bsky.social writes, the half century before Hastings saw men become king throughout conquest, descent, treaty and being in the right place at the right time.

And the #BayeuxTapestry shows the multiple ways of "making a king" that still took place at Charles III's succession.

The #BayeuxTapestry, currently on display at the British Museum, depicts events leading up to the Battle of Hastings which occurred #OTD 1066. What does the tapestry and “Bayeux fever” tell us about English-French relations?
