Vostre / Pigouchet, Dead king

Douce 93 Dead queen

While Simon Vostre makes 66 people dance in the right and left margins, other scenes unfold at the bottom of the pages. Among sequences about the life of Job and about Christian sacraments, one finds a dead king and a dead queen.
The king points to his crown as an allusion to the dead king in La Danse Macabre, who says: "Yet I have been a crowned king". There's a larger version here: Dead king.
