The Apocalypse Tapestry is a large medieval French set of tapestries commissioned by Louis I the Duke of Anjou and produced between 1377 and 1382. It depicts the story of the Apocalypse from the Book of Revelation by Saint John the Divine in colourful images spread over a number of sections that originally totalled 90 scenes. Despite being lost and mistreated in the late 18th century the tapestry was recovered and restored in the 19th century and is now on display at the Chateau d’Angers.
