(Not like I had a say in this - @Joakim you can leave it unlinked or rename it to something else if you wish. Can you just please don't delete it in any case : I'd like to work on it and make some changes based on the post restoration video of the room) |

In the castle of Ravel, located in Auvergne, exists an aula decorated with a long fresco featuring the arms of various princes and local nobles.
Pierre Flotte (d.1302), councillor of Philippe IV le Bel, received the castle as a gift from the king in 1294.
The shield of Louis de France, as king of Navarre, used after his mother's death in 1305, allows us to date the realization of those wall paintings between 1305 and 1314.
Today the castle is privately owned and extensive restoration work was completed on that room in 2021. The present reconstruction of the paintings follows the numbering, datation and main programs/identifications of the original study published by Christian de Mérindol in 2000. It also provides additional changes to match other iconographic testimonies and newly available pictures of the restored room.
