People in barrels - -JKP- - 16-11-2018
I was going to respond to Koen's barrrel image on the "rings" thread but realized this probably needs its own thread...
Diogenes is traditionally shown in a barrel, sometimes upright:

Morgan MS M.126 (England, c. 1470 but notice that the text and illustrations are in the French/Flanders style)
Or sometimes on its side, like a cave. These two, in which the barrel is sideways are from French manuscripts:

Alexander in a glass barrel (medieval submarine):

British Library Royal MS 20 B (France, c. 1420)
Bathing barrels (there are many of these, and they are always upright, so I'll post just one):
![[Image: m312.009ra.jpg]](http://ica.themorgan.org/icaimages/3/m312.009ra.jpg)
Morgan MS M.312 Book of Hours, use of Rouen, c. 1470s
Barrels for food and tools:
There are also many barrels associated with milking cows and goats, distillation and fermentation, and they are pretty much always upright, so I'll post just one:

The ones that are most consistently sideways are Alexander's barrel and Diogenes's barrrel.
