Tobias Capwell: The Bayeux Tapestry: a Tale of Threads and Steel
In three lectures Tobias Capwell will explore the essential facts of the Bayeux Tapestry, from its materials and technique to the unique visual record it offers of a dramatic series of events in English and European history; there will also be a detailed look at the armour and weapons of Norman knights as shown on the Tapestry.
