French artist Hélène Delprat was selected to complete the famous, 11th-century Bayeux Tapestry depicting the Norman Conquest of England in 1066. Made of 58 different scenes of embroidery on linen, 230 feet long and 20 inches tall, the Unesco-classified work is widely believed to have been made in England, and thought to be missing the final scene, showing the coronation of William the Conqueror in Westminster Abbey. Now Delprat will have a go at it. [Le Figaro]
