Bayeux Tapestry Fine China by Royal Doulton
One of the first patterns in the Royal Doulton Seriesware, Bayeux Tapestry is based on the embroidered tapestry that was created at the request of the half brother to William the Conqueror, Bishop Odo. On display in its own museum in Bayeux, Normandy, the tapestry is over 200 feet long and tells the story of the Norman conquest of England in 1066.
Charles Noke, Royal Doulton's original art director, created ideas for the launch of Royal Doulton's Seriesware range at the end of the 19th century. The inspiration for many of the patterns featured characters from literature, history, folklore and music. Popular sports and leisurely activities such as golfing, hunting and fishing were also illustrated. Seriesware patterns featuring children are among the most collected today. The list of subjects is endless and demonstrates Noke's inherent gift for creating items with popular appeal.
