Answer:

B. To establish weaving as a viable form of art.

Step-by-step explanation:

Bayeux's Tapestry discloses the tale of Norman Conquest in 1066 by England. It contains an ample amount of information regarding the political events related to the conquest and also the facets of Norman society, culture, life and history. It exemplifies an astonishing 1000 years old work of art and a reliable source of information. The work was designed to celebrate William's conquest and also established weaving as an art form as it has been widely used as decorating material for the cathedral and designed as an ornament for the consecration of the building which is still being considered as one of the remarkable work of art even today since medieval age. It had no affiliation to the contemporary life, nor with the entertainment as it was for glory and information and not at all to distract people's attention from the war.
