field of the cloth of gold

The Field of Cloth of Gold was a spectacular meeting that took place from June 7 to June 24, 1520, between the king of England (Henry VIII) and the King of France (Francis I). The meeting took placr near Guisnes in France. Each king tried to outshine the other, with dazzling tents and clothes, huge feasts, jousting and games. Although the meeting started well, it apparently turned sour for Henry when he lost a wrestling match with Francis. Relations between the two countries soured when Henry supported Charles, prince of Castile, the Holy Roman Emperor who declared war on France later that year.
