Photo of a white silk embroidered mitre from 1200. It is embroidered with gold, showing scenes of Thomas Becket being killed by knights with swords, and on the other side Stephen, with several people raising up stones towards him.

Daily museum object: c.1200 embroidered mitre, back and front. Opus Anglicanum (gold underside couching on silk) showing the death of Thomas Becket. 📷 me, taken in December 2015 in the Bayerisches Nationalmuseum, Munich. Photo CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 #MedievalSky #MedievalTextiles
