What an amazing history lesson!
Mom and Dad, I love that you still have those cushions in the den after all those years.
Seeing the real thing must have been incredible!
Being the good liberal arts student, I will never forget 1066.
Halley's comet and the burp in the eating scene made me chuckle.
Wish I would be this creative!
"We had to do it. We had to bring back a wonderful little animation of The Bayeux Tapestry — you know, the famous embroidery that offers a pictorial interpretation of the Norman Conquest of England (1066) and the events leading up to this pivotal moment in medieval history. Currently residing in France, the tapestry measures 20 inches by 230 feet, and you can now see an animated version of the story it narrates. The clip above starts roughly halfway through the historical narrative, with the appearance of Halley’s Comet, and it concludes with the Battle of Hastings in 1066. The video created by David Newton began as a student project at Goldsmiths College."
