Grandes Chroniques de France, illumination by Jean Fouquet, ca 1455-1460 BnF, Français 6465, fol. 456
A hexagonal pavilion with no visible guy ropes. The walls have been detached from most of one segment of the roof and spread back to make a wider opening, with the ends somehow secured beneath the valence. The great captain lies on a simple pallet and bolster on the ground, although it is covered with rich blue cloth.
