Ilustrated reconstruction of Henry VIII's private, or privy, garden at Hampton Court Palace was laid out in heraldic fashion with 20 regular sections filled with flowers. These sections were bordered by low green and white rails with, at intervals, poles painted in the same Tudor colours. On to these were fixed carved and painted heraldic beasts holding up gilded metal vanes
