Design for a royal pavilion, early 16th century. Lavishly decorated tents constructed at the field of the Cloth of Gold, the meeting place, between Guînes and Ardres near Calais in France, where Henry VIII of England and Francis I of France and their entourages gathered between June 7 and 24, 1520. The castles at both villages were in decay, and therefore splendid temporary palaces and pavilions were erected for Henry at Guînes and for Francis at Ardres. From a portfolio containing drawings and prints.
