1066 — the year that changed England forever… and the inspiration behind our name.
For the first time in nearly 1,000 years, the extraordinary Bayeux Tapestry has returned to England.
This remarkable 70-metre-long medieval masterpiece tells the dramatic story of the events leading up to the Battle of Hastings and the Norman Conquest in 1066.
And 1066 has a special connection for us. Our gallery is called Gallery 1066 Fine Art - a name inspired by the historic year, but also by the surname of our founder, Hayley Norman.
Norman. 1066. Gallery.
A little piece of history woven into the identity of our gallery. And how fitting that almost 1,000 years later, 1066 is still inspiring artists, collectors and art lovers.
The Bayeux Tapestry reminds us that art has always been about storytelling - capturing people, places and moments that stay with us through generations.
Gallery 1066 - named after a year in history, created with a passion for art.✨
