This unique historical and cultural memento of the 11th century is displayed here in all its glory through recent photographs taken in its new and splendid surroundings at the Center of William the Conqueror in Bayeux. Contemporary sources from England, France, and Scandinavia have been used to survey the themes of the tapestry and the history it recounts. The author also suggests alternative interpretations of the controversial features of this masterpiece.
