Hi Tristan,
At the risk of sounding dumb

- what exactly do you mean by a Torse?? or mantle?? (I have mental images - but would love to be sure I know what You mean).
Also - do you have any specific painting/illumination in mind as a starter? or are you going by general gut feelings??
regards,
Muriel (de Chimay)
PS. I'm usually very focused on mid-14th c English/French dress and accessories - but am willing to learn "outside-the-box" hehe
