Deconstructing a visual image: Scene from the Bayeux Tapestry

(0)
I use the scene of Norman soldiers crossing the English/French Channel when I teach the topic on the Vikings. The scene is a great chance to look at how the tapestry was made, the materials it was made from as an example of agricultural and textile industries, the warfare, shipping technology, gender roles (of the men as soldiers and the women as weavers) as well as the analysis of the components of the image. There is also the opportunity to look at what happened to the Vikings - in this case, those who settled in Normandy assimilated into French culture but maintained an important Norman distinction. This task is designed for students of the NSW History K-10 Syllabus for the Australian Curriculum. Stage 4 Depth Study 4: The Western and Islamic Worlds The Vikings
