A complete image of the sailing ship from the right of the previous post. It has an anchor at the front, a coloured sail half unfurled, and a row of men along its side, some with oars. There's a blue shield hanging at the stern.
…then Harold sailed the sea to France.

On the left people are coming out of a building, carrying dogs and a hawk onto a rowing boat. At the right hand side, a partial view of a sailing ship loaded with people. Along the bottom, a number of mythical animals and ornamentations.
After the feast, dogs and hawks were loaded onto the boats…

Left and centre there are three arches with a group of people eating and drinking set on a level above the arches. There's a roof over them. To the right a man is coming down some stairs. There are small mythical animals along the top and bottom.
Harold and a companion enter the church at Bosham to pray for a safe voyage, then a feast is held in one of Harold's manor houses.

An elaborate embroidery depicting a medieval scene. On the left a gold coloured tower with a stylised roof that extends across the image in an inverted V shape to another smaller tower in the right. In the centre of the image a man with green robes and a crown is holding a sceptre in his left hand. To his left two presumed courtiers, one dressed in light blue edged with gold, and one in a darker burgundy colour. Above him the inscription Edward Rex. At the bottom of the image in the centre, two large golden birds, and to the left a couple of dogs, only one of which is fully visible. At the top are two mythical creatures, and what maybe a representation of plants or flowers. A high resolution copy of the original tapestry can be seen here: https://www.bayeuxmuseum.com/en/the-bayeux-tapestry/discover-the-bayeux-tapestry/explore-online/#explore
It's 1064, and Edward the Confessor sits on his throne in Westminster. The opening scene from maybe the most famous tapestry ever, the #BayeuxTapestry. This photo is from the Victorian copy of 1885 on permanent display at @readingmuseum.bsky.social. More in Alt.

An outside wall of stacked books, with spines facing out. The bright colors, varied patterns, and textures ranging from smooth and shiny to rough and frayed, give the overall impression of a fabric tapestry.
Book tapestry.
