Browsing the book i mentioned earlyer today, finally found the illustration 
with the wheel farthingale lying on the floor.
But i am very disapointed, the illustration is dutch and from 1636.
I had seen this illustration in another book by Broby Johansen and he didnt 
mention the source for the illustration, and not the year either.
So i am dissapointed. 
Still believe that wheel farthingales exsisted.
Here is the picture from Dagligtliv I Norden i det 16. århundrede.
Even that this is a french farthingale, i still believe its made from iron 
rings.
