French Center For Carpets And Tapestries - Bayeux Tapestry - C. 1970

- Cotton brocade woven in the “Princess” weave.

- This superb 1976 edition, produced by the Centre Français des Tapis et Tapisseries, offers collectors a truly exceptional opportunity: the seemingly impossible chance to bring the epic elegance and narrative dynamism of this masterpiece of Norman art directly onto the walls of their living room. Reproducing with admirable textile precision the famous scene of the siege of Rennes (*Hic Milites Willelmi Ducis Pugnant Contra Rennes*), this piece faithfully recreates the characteristic shades of ochre, green, and terracotta, as well as the stylized silhouettes of knights, the Latin inscriptions, and the borders populated by fantastical creatures that immortalized the conquest of England in the 11th century. Thanks to the meticulous reproduction work in this vintage edition, the discerning buyer can acquire a fundamental fragment of European medieval history and transform their home into an ideal gallery for showcasing the visual grandeur of the Bayeux Tapestry.
