<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lizjewel, post: 1834615, member: 13874&quot;][USER=8267]@2manybooks[/USER]: The language in above tapestry is not French, however, it&#039;s old German. The king figure (crowned head) in the center is identified above (him) as <b>Kaiser Karolus Wilhelm</b>, i e <b>Emperor Karl Wilhelm</b>... [some words illegible], and above the knight, &quot;<i>von Holland zureck</i>..&quot; loosely, &quot;<i>from Holland back</i>.&quot; </p><p>I&#039;m sure a very precise and fine academic translation from Old German exists somewhere. I could go on but I&#039;ll yield the floor to someone better at German than I.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
