EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases fragments from the iconic Bayeux Tapestry, offering a glimpse into the historic events of the Norman Conquest in 1066. Created by Villain in the 19th century, this handcoloured lithograph beautifully captures various scenes from the tapestry. The image presents an array of intriguing elements, including archers poised with their bows, a slinger hunting birds with his trusty slingshot, and a hunter accompanied by his loyal dogs. Additionally, there is a man engaging in bear baiting while carefully muzzling the powerful creature. These diverse depictions provide insight into medieval life and customs. Horace de Viel-Castel's illustration forms the basis for this remarkable artwork found within his Collection des costumes, armes et meubles pour servir à l'histoire de la France (Collection of costumes, weapons and furniture to be used in the history of France). Published by Treuttel & Wurtz and Bossange in 1829, this lithograph preserves not only historical accuracy but also showcases exquisite fashion and costume details. As we explore these fragments from one of history's most celebrated tapestries through this stunning print by Bridgeman Images sourced from Fine Art Finder, we are transported back to ancient times. This visual treasure serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage and invites us to delve deeper into French history during this significant period.
