Question

Which of the following is NOT TRUE concerning the Bayeux Tapestry?

Tap to reveal answer

Answer

The Bayeux Tapestry is actually an embroidery of wool thread on linen, not a woven tapestry. Its sequential panels tell the story of the Battle of Hastings and its preceding events. The figures' flat and out-of-proportion appearance resembles that of figures on medieval manuscripts.
