| 16th century? | Fourteen bell tents, one pavilion and one wedge tent, on either side
on the exploding castle on the right hand side of the tapestry.
One of the tents is unusual, it appear that it is a bell tent with a centre pole and pole supporting the walls but the roof has not been pulled tight. Other wedge tents and shelters can be seen spread throughout the middle and right side of the tapestry. |
