Art lovers, history buffs, and anyone with an interest in Christian or classical studies will enjoy this presentation about the 19” x 229’ Bayeux Tapestry. Author, photographer, and historian Rev. Dr. Lynne Kogel brings to life the nearly 1000-year-old embroidered account of the 1066 CE conquest of England by William the Conqueror of Normandy. She shares rare photography as well as research conclusions about the origins and connections of the Tapestry in Biblical and Greek classical literature.
