English: Ogier the Dane the sword Courtain was about to strike down Charlot (Charlemagne's son) for murdering his son, when an angel stops the sword with his hand. Supposedly the design on a piece of tapestry hung on a hall (in a castle belonging to a hypothetical typical baron of the 13th century or so).
