Wisbech (AFP) – In eastern England, Swedish-born Mia Hansson has spent the last decade recreating one of history’s most famous embroidered artworks, the Bayeux Tapestry. Hansson says the painstaking work has become a form of therapy, helping her to relax. Despite spending years recreating scenes from the 11th-century masterpiece, she insists she started the project for the craftsmanship, not the history.
