Image description

Sewn by English women probably in Kent to a Norman brief, the embroidery illustrates the events leading to the Norman invasion and conquest of England by an army led by Duke William of Normandy and the death of King Harold at the Battle of Hastings in 1066. Duke William, accompanied by Harold, leads an army against Duke Conan of Brittany who has declared war on him. After Mont Saint-Michel they get stuck in the mud of the river Couesnon where Harold bravely rescues two soldiers from the quicksand
