The famous embroidery to be completed one more time.http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-21393307http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-manchester-20332633
Hopefully they'll show a full view of the newly-completed portions, side by side with the original Tapestry. It's probably the greatest single work of art from the time of William the Conqueror, but the problem with it is that it's so long it's hard to think about except in individual pieces. It's not like people can appreciated it in the same way they can appreciate the Laocoon or the Mona Lisa.
I have actually seen it in Bayeax and it is overwhelming to see the original.
I would like to see it someday. It is in its own museum, right?
Yeah, the original tapestry is in a sealed case that wraps around a room and on the second floor they have pictures of every panel with interpretations.
