Animated Bayeux Tapestry

[learnedax]

I guess this has been around for some time, but I'd never run across it before: an animation of (the second half of) the Bayeux Tapestry.

I like how closely the animation seems to have followed the original work (to my non-expert eyes), while still giving it a new life.

Very nice! Though I don't know why they skip the rich comic possibilities of the shovel fight, or why the caption mentions the death of Leofwine but not Gyrð (same caption, in the original). But very nice.
