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. Audience with Duke William (1027-87) granted to Harold (c. 1022-66) in the castle at Rouen. A woman identified as Ælfgyva is seen with a priest in what may be a compromising situation.
