@apkarthistory The Tapestry was made for royalty. It was made by people famed for their needlework and is very long. It was made very soon after the invasion of England, so it probably somewhat historically accurate.
@apkarthistory The Mosaic is intricately made for a wealthy person. It contains a vast amount of pieces and took a long time to make. It gives us a rare insight into what greek painting was like.
@apkarthistory The standerd of Ur is similar to The last judgment of Hu-Nefer.
