What happened

The British Museum said on Monday that it has banned people from taking photos of the 1,000-year-old Bayeux Tapestry to prevent crowds from forming at the new exhibit. The artwork is on display in the UK after an unprecedented loan from France, and tickets are sold out until December 31.
