Reader's note

Enjoy another piece of classic literary history with this rare, vintage book, The Bayeux Tapestry 1947. This volume in A Gallery of Masterpieces contains black and white photographs of the Bayeux Tapestry with an introduction by Andre Lejard who tells the history of the Bayeux Tapestry and its origin and argues:

"It is the hall-mark of creative genius that it brings to men a new vision of the world; the first green shoot of a new art that was to put forth leaves and flower in the next century, finding superb fulfilment in the paintings that adorn the walls of the churches of Western Europe."

This wonderful edition details its description and its story at the end of the book and includes a bibliography. Just one among a bounty of antique, rare and obscure gems on our second hand bookstore!
