The Bayeux Tapestry commemorates the Norman conquest of England in 1066 A.D.

Halley's comet is depicted inside the Bayeux Tapestry.

The best thing on translation was said by Cervantes: translation is the other side of a tapestry.

And forth they bring the broidered tapestry, / with purple dyed and wrought full cunningly. / The tables groan with silver; there are told / the deeds of prowess for the gazer's eye, / a long, long series, of their sires of old, / traced from the nation's birth, and graven in the gold.
