The illustration brings together two different aspects. On the one hand, the photograph captures the moment in which I explain the coat of arms of Charles, Holy Roman Emperor, during one of my heraldic art exhibitions, pointing directly to its components while the audience observes. On the other hand, it shows the coat of arms of Charles V as painted by me. All the works visible in the image have been created by me. In this exhibition, I combined the presentation of my coats of arms with a live music concert featuring works by Schubert, Tchaikovsky, Komitas, and Carlos Gardel.

Design rationale

This coat of arms is conceived as an evolution of the canting arms of the Padilla lineage, traditionally depicted with palewise «padillas» ~ oven peels used to place and remove bread from the oven, and crescent moons, all charges Argent on an Azure field; in this reinterpretation, the crescents are transformed into a central sun and the «padillas» into ears of wheat, the symbolic source of bread, with the charges rendered Or on an Azure field.
