The blockbuster exhibition - with a stellar cast of experts telling the Tapestry's story
The British Museum said on Monday that it has banned people from taking photos of the Bayeux Tapestry to prevent crowds from backing up at the new exhibit. The 1,000-year-old artwork is on display in the UK after an unprecedented loan from France, and tickets are sold out until December 31.
The exhibition of the Bayeux Tapestry at the British Museum is eagerly anticipated across the UK, as the medieval masterpiece is considered by many to be a symbol of the country's identity.
