An illustrated study reproduces a medieval embroidered narrative in full-color facsimile and pairs these plates with an extended introduction and continuous commentary. The author treats the embroidery as a rare pictorial record of a decisive medieval invasion, examining its pictorial conventions, purpose as public memory, and the uncertainties surrounding its date and provenance. Descriptive passages guide readers through scenes of preparation, voyage, combat, and ceremony, while critical sections contrast visual representation with written inscription and invite close attention to technique, composition, and historical detail.
