Escudo de gules, un monte de tres peñas moviente de la punta sumado de una puerta con tejadillo, jambas, dintel arqueado, dos hojas abiertas sostenida de una escalinata de tres peldaños todo de oro, aclarada de gules.

Coat of arms painted by me, illuminated with lights and shadows, outlined in Sable, with an ogee external shape and with a freehand finish.

Coat of arms of Albrecht Dürer, 1471-1528, emblazoned by me based on the woodcut titled «Coat of Arms of Albrecht Dürer» made by Albrecht Dürer himself in 1523 on a sheet measuring 35.1 × 26.1 cm belonging to The Elisha Whittelsey Collection, The Elisha Whittelsey Fund, 1952, held at the Metropolitan Museum of New York, and on the work titled «Marriage Coat of Arms of the Families Duerer and Holper. Verso of the Albrecht Dürer the Elder portrait», dated 1490; Albrecht Dürer the Elder, 1427–1502, was his father.

Design rationale

The Dürer family coat of arms is an example of canting arms. Their family origin traces back to Ajtós, Hungary, a name which means «door» or «doorman» in Hungarian. Upon settling in Nuremberg, the family Germanized their surname to «Türer», derived from «Tür», meaning «door», and later to Dürer. This is the reason of the main charge of these arms.

Coat of arms depicted by me, illuminated with lights and shadows, contoured in Sable, with an ogee external shape and with a freehand finishing.

Coat of arms of the King Alfonso X of Castile, 1221–1284, 1st son of the King Ferdinand III of Castile, 1199-1252, and the Queen Beatrice of Swabia, 1205–1235. The order of the quarters is first the castle of his grandmother, Queen Berenguela of Castile, and second the lion of his grandfather, King Alfonso IX of León; however, the other day I discovered that on the map by [Martineau du Plessis, D.; 1700; volume II, illustration 30, page 126], in the shield framed between parallels 37 and 36 and meridians 21 and 22, the lion occupies the 1st quarter and the castle the 2nd quarter; that is, their order appears reversed.

There are discrepancies regarding the year of her death, with sources suggesting either 1279 or 1288. She bore her father's arms with a bordure compony featuring the arms of Castile and those of her mother, from Swabia. [Menéndez Pidal de Navascués, F.; 1982; page 104 and illustration between pages 112 and 113] writes «We know of a seal of this infanta that displays in the field the royal quarterly, surrounded like a bordure by 4 castles and 4 eagles, alternating», and in the illustration he depicts the bordure with 8 castles and 8 eagles, which is the version I have interpreted. I am particularly fond of compony arms, and this one is, to me, among the most beautiful and quintessentially Castilian.

Arms painted by me, highlighted with lights and shadows, outlined in Sable, with a semi-circular external shape and with a iridescent finish.

Arms of the Kingdom of Spain emblazoned by me. On the arrangement of the crowns: a) Royal Decree 1511/1977, of 21 January, enacted during the so-called Transition and approving the Regulations on Flags and Standards, Guidons, Insignia and Distinctive Signs, states: «Rule No. 2. Coat of Arms of Spain… Accompanied by two columns Argent, with base and capital Or, set upon waves Azure or blue and Argent», «superado» «by an imperial crown on the dexter one and by a royal crown on the sinister one…». b) The subsequent Law 33/1981, of 5 October, regulating the current coat of arms of Spain, likewise states: «…Accompanied by two columns Argent, with base and capital Or, set upon waves Azure or blue and Argent», «superado» «by an imperial crown on the dexter one and by a royal crown on the sinister one». c) The term «superado» in the heraldic dictionaries in which it appears refers, as a synonym, to «surmontado». d) The definitions of «surmontado» include: «a charge which, at its upper part, has another above it but without touching it», «also said of superado», and «a figure that bears another above it, but without touching it». In light of a), b), c) and d), the two crowns should therefore be painted not touching the columns. However, in the illustrative drawing contained in Royal Decree 1511/1977 the crowns do touch the columns, contradicting its own wording, although in heraldry, when in doubt, the written blazon always prevails; and in most official representations the crowns do indeed touch the columns. Nevertheless, this personal interpretation of both the coat of arms of Spain and of the proper way to write its blazon, where the lateral crowns do not touch the columns, and then I decide that, following the same criterion, the central crown should not touch the shield either, so the result differs from the official version. The expression «waves Azure or blue and Argent», which appears both in the 1977 official definition and in the 1981 one, presents a double peculiarity: it combines the heraldic term «Azure» with the everyday term «blue», and it is also offered as an optional blazon, giving two alternatives, that the waves be only Azure, as I have painted them, or Azure and Argent; optional blazons are extremely rare and, in my view, perhaps not very advisable.

Comunidad de Madrid, plain tincture

Gules, two castles triple-towered Or, port and windows Azure, masoned Sable, in chief, seven mullets Argent, 4 and 3.

Gules, two castles triple-towered Or, port and windows Azure, masoned Sable, in chief, seven mullets Argent, 4 and 3.

Coat of arms interpreted by me, in plain tinctures, outlined in Sable, with a semi-circular external shape and with a texturized finishing.

Coat of arms of the Comunidad de Madrid emblazoned by me. In English heraldry, the default number of points for the mullet is five unless otherwise specified. Therefore, if a blazon mentions a mullet without further detail, the artist must depict it with five points. Conversely, in Castilian heraldry, stars are conventionally represented with six points by default. When a five-pointed mullet appears in an English blazon, it is mandatory to specify the number of points in the Castilian version of the blazon, as in this case.

Design rationale

The castles derive from Castile, and the 7 mullets come from the bordure of the city of Madrid; they represent the stars of the Plough, the 7 brightest stars of Ursa Major. This coat of arms was adopted by the Comunidad de Madrid on December 23, 1983. Regarding the symbolism of this coat of arms, José Manuel Huidobro told me: «Each star has five points representing the five provinces surrounding Madrid: Ávila, Segovia, Guadalajara, Cuenca, and Toledo. The castles embody the most characteristic symbol of Castile. Both neighboring communities, Castilla-La Mancha and Castilla y León, display them in their coats of arms. The fact that they are paired symbolizes the Community of Madrid’s claim to serve as a link between the two Castiles». He includes the coat of arms of the Comunidad de Madrid in his book [Huidobro Moya, J. M.; 2024; page 214].

Coat of arms emblazoned by me, illuminated with lights and shadows, outlined in Sable, with a semi-circular outer contour and with a iridescent finishing.

Coat of arms of Crepsi, military psychology, former Central Military Region, Kingdom of Spain, where I was stationed during my military service. These arms were designed by my lieutenant colonel and friend Miguel Angel Nuñez Amador, and in this image, they have been emblazoned by me. The Crepsi was a pioneer in its functions: a) the identification of soldiers at psychological risk, among tens of thousands of soldiers, using advanced information systems, including Artificial Intelligence (an area where I contributed during my service in 1989), and b) the evaluation and individualized attention of soldiers at risk through mobile units. The Crepsi has provided trained personnel and methods that are being used for the psychological care of troops deployed to conflict zones and for the psychological care of civilians in massive humanitarian disasters such as terrorist attacks or plane crashes with hundreds of affected people.

Design rationale

The psi letter of psychology and the arms of the Central Military Region: Party per pale: 1 Gules, a castle triple-towered Or, port and windows Azure, and masoned Sable; 2 Argent, a lion rampant Gules, crowned Or. These two fields, in turn, Gules and Argent, charged with a castle triple-towered and a crowned lion, originate from the Kingdom of Castile and León. The diminished bordure is for difference.

Coat of arms devised by me, highlighted with lights and shadows, outlined in Sable, with an ogee outer contour and with a freehand finishing.

Coat of arms of Dr. Jacques William Normand Delfin. He is from Mexico and his family comes from Falaise in Normandy. This coat of arms has been created by him and me, and emblazoned by me.

Design rationale

The leopards symbolize the family’s origin in Falaise, Normandy, as well as the nobility of heart to help those in need; their raised claw represents the ardor in striving to accomplish the proposed undertakings; their gaze forward stands for sincerity and honesty in daily actions; their walking in pair conveys the enduring unity of the family; and the gold of their skin reflects the purity of the soul, mirrored along the path of life. The Norman drakkar sailing westward symbolizes both the family’s journey to America in search of a new horizon and the quest for knowledge in science, technology, cosmology, theology, and the Universe itself. The oak acorns represent the Breton branch of the family and embody strength, perseverance, chivalry, kindness, loyalty, sacrifice, and faith. The motto proclaims that God may be our Master, Companion, and Guide, the Light along the path, and the Shield against adversity in life’s journey. The Cross of Lorraine honors Saint Joan of Arc, who bore it upon her standard.

Coat of arms depicted by me, illuminated with lights and shadows, outlined in Sable, with a semi-circular outer contour and with a leather finishing.

Design rationale

She is an Associate Professor and Assistant Professor at the University of Houston-Clear Lake. She studied Marine Biology at the University of Puerto Rico, Humacao (1991–1995), and the marine motifs reflect both her academic training and career. The dolphin on the shield refers to her Puerto Rican heritage, her birthplace in Fajardo, and her personal value of honor. At her request, the shield ends in a semi-circular arch, in keeping with Hispanic heraldic tradition. The three escallops symbolize her family and her compassion.

In Castilian, I prefer to use the term «almirez» instead of «mortero», as the latter can also refer to a weapon or even a type of cap in heraldic terminology. The word «almirez» has a unique meaning and comes from the Hispano-Arabic «almihrás» or «almihráz», which derives from Classical Arabic «mihras».

Coat of arms depicted by me, illuminated with lights and shadows, outlined in Sable, with an ogee external shape and with a freehand finishing.

Coat of arms of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II emblazoned by me. Saint Edward Crown, the fundamental piece used in the anointing ceremony of British monarchs, was reconstructed in 1661 after the Restoration. This crown is distinguished by its four depressed or downward-curving arches, three visible, which rise from a circular base decorated with four cross patty, three visible, alternating with four fleurs de lis, two visible. Like the Tudor, its arches, adorned with pearls, converge at the center to support an orb, a cross on a world. The crown's base is lined with ermine, and the cap or inner lining is traditionally represented in Purpure. It is the heaviest piece among the Crown Jewels and its use is reserved exclusively for the culminating moment of the coronation. The main visual difference between Saint Edward Crown and the Tudor Crown lies in their arches: Saint Edward Crown features depressed arches or downward curves, and its inner cap is typically represented in Purpure. Conversely, the Tudor Crown features ascending or semi-circular arches, and its inner cap is colored Gules.

Coat of arms of His Majesty King Charles III emblazoned by me. The Tudor Crown, or 16th-century Imperial State Crown, has been the motif chosen by King Charles III for his visual identity. This crown is distinguished by its four ascending arches, three visible, which rise from a circular base decorated with four cross patty, three visible, alternating with four fleurs de lis, two visible. The arches, adorned with pearls, join at the center to support an orb, a cross on a world. The cloth cap inside is traditionally represented in Gules. And the base is lined with ermine. The way to distinguish the Tudor Crown from Saint Edward Crown is that Saint Edward Crown has depressed arches and its cap or inner lining is traditionally represented in Purpure. Charles III's choice revives the heraldic version used by his grandfather and great-grandfather, marking a preference for a symbol of the 16th-century monarchy.

Escudo de oro, cuatro campanarios movientes de la punta de gules, aclarados de oro.

Arms painted by me, in plain tinctures, outlined in Sable, with a semi-circular external shape and with a texturized finish.

Coat of arms of Alejandra Espeja Avieda designed by Juan Lanzagorta Vallín and emblazoned by me. Blazoning specific, real-world objects in coats of arms should be avoided. Therefore, in the blazon I describe «four bell towers». However, in this case, for artistic reasons, to echo the elongated form of the four pallets Gules, and due to the origin of the bearer, I depict four bell towers inspired by those on the Nativity Façade of Gaudí’s Sagrada Família in Barcelona. Additionally, I initially blazoned the arrangement of the 4 bell towers as «in fess» ~ «en faja», as, from a heraldic perspective, this term accurately describes their horizontal alignment next to each other across the field. However, I observed that this term, far from clarifying the design, caused confusion among some viewers. The naturally vertical shape of a bell tower, its default position, is «palewise» ~ «puesta en palo», so using «in fess» ~ «en faja» led many to assume that I intended to lay the bell towers on their sides. Although the original description was heraldically correct, I decided to remove the mention of «in fess» ~ «en faja» for being unnecessary and clearly counterproductive. As the towers are «issuant from base» ~ «movientes de la punta», their placement in a horizontal row is sufficiently implied, thus avoiding misunderstandings and maintaining the clarity of the blazon. It is important to remember that «in fess» ~ «en faja» refers to how multiple elements are aligned with each other (in a horizontal row), while «palewise» ~ «puesto en palo» describes the individual orientation of an element (in a vertical position).

Nogueira Gonçalves, or «Armaria Portuguesa» that describes it in Portuguese «De azul, cinco flores de lis de oiro.

Gules, a chevron Or.

Arms of Gilbert des Essarts, France, emblazoned by me. This scheme (outlined and then in plain tincture) depicts a chevron with a wider, more obtuse angle than usual. This design shows that the chevron is constructed with the side lines forming an angle where the tangent of half the angle is 56.3o, arctan(3/2), its width is made one-fourth of the shield's overall width, and the position of the chevron's lower point (the apex) is governed by the shield's geometric center, resulting in a visually more open shape than the standard.

Design rationale

The coat of arms of Markus Hermann Frank features a Franconian Rake, a heraldic reference to his surname, making this a case of canting arms. The Franconian Rake is the historical emblem of the Franconia region in Germany, traditionally blazoned as per fess dancetty of three points Gules and Argent. He is a Medical Doctor and an Associate Professor at Harvard Medical School, which is reflected in the two fleams, surgical instruments historically used in medicine.

He bore his father's arms, replacing the lion Purpure of the Kingdom of León with a cross flory Purpure, likely due to his close association with the Order of Calatrava, whose emblem is a cross flory Gules. However, he retained the metal Argent field in the 2nd and 3rd quarters and the lion's purpure color, suggesting this was more of a conceptual change than a quartering by alliance with the Order of Calatrava.

Infante Manuel of Castile, schema 3x4

ManuelDeCastilla 17 CuartelarSimbolosConceptos Esquema 3x4 jpg

In Castile, a coat of arms quarterly does not necessarily signify inheritance. This schema illustrates two practices: a) Quarterings can represent the mother in the 1st and 4th quarters and the father in the 2nd and 3rd, highlighting the prominence given to the maternal line by placing it in the most visible quarters. b) Quarterings can also include personal symbols and concepts, like canting arms, for example, «Manuel» =«mano» + «ala» = «hand» + «wing», combined with ancestral arms. This flexibility reflects Castilian heraldic traditions, where arms are not strictly marshalled by inheritance. The inclusion of maternal arms in the 1st and 4th quarters highlights how Castilian heraldry often elevates maternal heritage, differing from some other heraldic traditions. The previous commentary emphasizes the creative freedom in Castile, where quartering could incorporate personal symbols or canting arms without the constraints of inheritance or dominium. This flexibility aligns with Castilian culture, allowing heraldry to reflect personal identity, not just dynastic ties. Notably, the arms of Infante Enrique's use of a cross flory demonstrates this creative freedom, showcasing the ability to innovate within heraldry even in royal contexts. While this might seem unconventional compared to other heraldic systems, it is deeply rooted in Castilian tradition. All coats of arms in this schema have been emblazoned by me.

Azure semé of mullets of seven points voided, interlaced, and conjoined Argent; a bordure Argent.

Escudo de azur sembrado de estrellas de siete puntas, huecas y entrelazadas de plata, unidas por las puntas; una filiera de plata.

Coat of arms interpreted by me, highlighted with lights and shadows, outlined in Sable, with an oval outer contour and with a watercolor finishing.

Design rationale

This coat of arms is inspired by the concept of the «lattice formed by the stars» described in the Books of Chilam Balam, pre-Columbian texts of the Yucatec Maya tradition that combine history, cosmology, religion, and astronomy. In this symbolic framework, the ordered network of mullets represents a sacred and intelligible universe, a cosmic structure through which the divine contemplates the world with wisdom. The semé and interlaced arrangement of the mullets visually translates this idea of a stellar lattice into heraldic form.

Argent, a lion passant Gules, grasping a Celtic cross Sable in its dexter forepaw, on a chief Vert, a mural crown with five visible oak leaves Argent. Motto: «Protect with Honour and Integrity» Sable, with initial letters Gules, over a scroll Argent.

Escudo de plata, un león pasante de gules, teniendo en su diestra una cruz celta se sable, en un jefe de sinople, una corona mural con cinco hojas de roble visibles de plata. Lema: «Protect with Honour and Integrity» de sable, con letras iniciales de gules, sobre una filacteria de plata.

Arms designed by me, highlighted with lights and shadows, outlined in Sable, with a pointed external shape and with a leather finish.

Design rationale

This coat of arms is a distillation of personal heritage and regional identity. The lion passant and the tinctures Gules and Argent are inspired by the Nolan arms; he is married to Dymphna, née Nolan. The oak leaves on the mural crown are derived from the Durkan arms. The Gules represents the ancient bloodline of the Durkan family in this part of Connacht. The colours Gules and Vert reflect the colours of County Mayo, where he was born. Argent, present in both the Durkan and Nolan arms, also evokes the swans on the lakes near the family homestead in County Mayo. The Celtic cross refers to Mayo Abbey, a nearby 7th-century monastic site traditionally linked to St. Colmán, close to Rathnacreeva. The circular stone structure of the mural crown represents Rathnacreeva, a ringfort, he was born in County Mayo to Bob Durkan and Bernie Flynn of Rathnacreeva. They are 5 brothers, the mural crown bears 5 oak leaves joined at their base through the stones of the crown, symbolising the 5 brothers and their connection. The mural crown symbolises civic authority and recalls both Dublin Castle, the former headquarters of An Garda Síochána, where the armiger served as a Garda, and also the dry-stone walls of the west of Ireland. The motto «Protect with Honour and Integrity» encapsulates the ideas of governance, duty, and moral authority.

Or, a fess chequey Argent, charged with an ermine spot, and Azure, between in chief two cross patty Gules, in base a thistle proper; a diminished bordure Azure.

The coat of arms of Reverend John Stuart, XVIII century, emblazoned by me in 3 approaches: 1) Classic bordure: Using a bordure with a width equal to 1/6 of the coat of arms' base. In the image, this is marked with texts and lines in Vert. Notice that the squares in columns 2 and 8 are split by the inner border of the bordure, which is unfortunate as it disrupts the design. 2) Diminished bordure: Using a narrower bordure with a width equal to 2/3 of the classic bordure, corresponding to 1 square of the fess chequey. In the image, this is marked with texts and lines in Gules. This approach avoids splitting any squares, allows for larger figures, and is my preferred solution. In England, diminished bordures, often simply blazoned as bordure, are more common than in Castile. 3) Without squares splitted: Retaining the classic bordure but shifting the fess chequey 1/2 square to either dexter or sinister to prevent splitting squares. However, this sacrifices the symmetry of the design. This last adjustment was used in the hatchment of Reverend John Stuart in St. George's Cathedral, Kingston, Ontario, 1785.

Azure, a chief wavy and barry wavy of twelve Azure and Argent debruised and interlaced by a fish urinant Argent.

Coat of arms of Juan Bautista Lanzagorta Escutia designed by Juan Lanzagorta Vallín and outlined by me. In English, «urinant» is the attitude of a dolphin or fish with its head down, diving. The term comes from the Latin «urinor», which means to dive, to swim underwater, or to submerge. There is no true equivalent in Spanish; a possible candidate would be «sumergido». It recalls the sad story of a shipwreck.

Coat of arms devised by me, highlighted with lights and shadows, contoured in Sable, with a semi-circular external shape and with a leather finishing.

The arms of Kevin Larkin from Ireland and Spain, designed and emblazoned by me. In heraldry, the rule of tinctures states «no color on color, no metal on metal». This means a castle metal Argent cannot bear a castel metal Or as a charge. However, in this design, the castle is divided party per pale, vertically, into Argent and Or. This division allows both metals to coexist, as each metal occupies one side of the charge without violating the tincture rule. Similarly, in a party field, both quarters can be of the same type, either color or metal, making this design heraldically correct.

Or, a fess chequey Gules and Argent.

Coat of arms of the lineage Mark of Germany. Symmetrical geometry of a fess chequey of 3 traits: a) The height of the fess is 1/3 of the width of the coat of arms. b) The fess is chequey with 3 traits. c) Therefore, the height of each trait is calculated as 1/3 x 1/3 = 1/9 of the width of the coat of arms. d) In a square, the height is equal to the width. e) Consequently, the width of each square in the chequey is also 1/9 of the width of the coat of arms. f) The first trait must contain 9 squares, as the width of the fess allows for an exact division into 9 equal squares, 9 being an odd number. g) If the first square is Gules, the last square of the same row will also be Gules, ensuring symmetry in the design.

Malka Gittel Bas Reuven, structured and parallel blazons

Coat of arms of Her Excellency Ratu Muda Malka Bas Reuven emblazoned by me with a shape known as a vesica piscis, and with the blazon written in English and Castilian in a structured way to observe the parallelism between both forms. My experience is that if shield shapes are named after countries, this creates problems in an international context. For example, if the shield with a rounded base is called a «Spanish shield», sooner or later someone will point out that the same shape is also used in Portugal, Hungary, or Poland, making it not exclusively Spanish. For this reason, I avoid assigning shield shapes names based on countries or kingdoms and instead give them names that describe their formal characteristics, which is not always easy. For example, I call the «semi-circular shield» in English and «escudo de medio punto» in Castilian to the commonly referred as «Spanish», or the «ogee shield» one that ends in an inverted ogee arch, «conopial» in Castilian. Despite this, at some point, breaking my own rule, I used the term «Bantu» to refer to the almond-shaped shield, only to be quickly corrected and informed of its connection to other African kingdoms. My mistake was not using the name I had always given it: «mandorla» in Castilian and «vesica piscis» in English.

Arms depicted by me, in plain tinctures, contoured in Sable, with an ogee outer contour and with a texturized finishing.

The coat of arms of the Marquis Prato di Arnesano, requested by Andrea Tamburelli Lanzara and painted by me. Vair is a fur, and furs are repetitive combinations of a metal and a color. In the case of vair, the metal is Argent and the color is Azure. Because they simultaneously include both a metal and a color, furs are exempt from the rule of tincture, as they would inevitably violate it, either through their metal or color component. In this coat of arms, the pallets of vair lies on a field of metal Or, and it might be thought that the metal Argent in the vair breaks the rule. However, as mentioned, the rule of tincture does not apply to furs due to their dual nature.

Coat of arms of the House of Noronha in Portugal, a lineage of dual royal origin. The House of Noronha originated with Alfonso Enríquez of Castile, Count of Noreña and Gijón, the natural son of King Henry II of Castile, founder of the Trastámara dynasty, and of Elvira Íñiguez. The lineage became linked to the Portuguese Royal House through the marriage of Alfonso Enríquez to Isabel of Portugal, the natural daughter of King Ferdinand I of Portugal, an alliance arranged in the context of the Treaty of Santarém of 1373, which brought an end to the Fernandine Wars, during which Ferdinand I of Portugal confronted the kings of the House of Trastámara over the throne of Castile following the murder of Peter I at the hands of his half-brother Henry. The House of Noronha became established in Portugal, and its arms quarter those of the Kingdom of Portugal, differenced by a brisure consisting of a baston Sable, and those of the House of Trastámara. This coat of arms has been emblazoned for Fernando Durán Cabral de Mello d’Alpoim by me as a preparatory work for his armorial bearings, his coat of arms has a inescutcheon with the arms of the House of Noronha.

Arms designed by me, in flat tinctures, contoured in Sable, with a semi-circular outer contour and with a texturized finishing.

Canting arms of Dolores Peregrina Corona designed by Juan Lanzagorta Vallín and me and emblazoned by me. In Castilian heraldic tradition, the «adiestrado» ~ «tierce» used in this coat of arms and its symmetrical «siniestrado» ~ «tierce sinister» are «irregular divisions of the field by one line» ~ «particiones irregulares». That is why I use «tierce» and «tierce sinister» in English. There is another possibility, which is to call the «adiestrado» ~ «pale in dexter flank» and the «siniestrado» ~ «pale in sinister flank», thus ceasing to be a type of «divisions of the field» ~ «particiones» and becoming «ordinaries» ~ «piezas fundamentales». This has implications, as the rule of tinctures would apply if it were considered a «pale» ~ «palo». In any case, I will write the blazon in both ways. Alternative blazon: Azure, a dexter arm vested, issuant from sinister, grasping a pilgrim's staff palewise, issuant from base, tied to it a gourd bendwise; on a pale in dexter flank Argent two keys points upwards, in saltire, between in chief an escallop, and in base a mullet of five points environed at dexter by a crescent bendwise azure.

Design rationale

These are canting arms because her surname is «Peregrina» ~ «pilgrim», and her coat of arms depicts the arm of a pilgrim, as she is one herself, with her staff and her gourd for carrying water, advancing towards the dexter, in order to reach the destination of her three most important life pilgrimages: Santiago de Compostela, Rome, and Jerusalem.

The coat of arms of Pesquera de Ebro, Burgos, Castile and Leon, designed and emblazoned by me by me in 9 steps. I have had the honor of participating in the project to create the coat of arms for Pesquera de Ebro. It has been a project carried out by the community in a dynamic and collaborative manner, facilitated through digital communication.

Design rationale

The inhabitants of Pesquera de Ebro form a very dynamic community and chose a series of elements to represent on their coat of arms, which, in order of importance, are the following: the elm tree, which stood in front of the church and served as a gathering point for the community; the three-arched bridge over the Ebro River; and the Ebro itself, which is part of the town's name. The word «pesquera», meaning a fishing spot, is symbolized by a barbel, a fish very common in the area, which I have depicted emerging from the water and placed bendwise. Additionally, the town features towers and a very high density of stone heraldic shields, one of the highest in Castile, hence the inclusion of the tower and the escutcheons.

This version of this coat of arms features a vert roundel at the fess point following the official specification of the coat of arms of Spain, instead of an emerald as I usually depict it and as is, for example, suggested in the blazon on page 142, although listed as 151 in its index, of the armorial [Urfé; Century XV; page 142], Bibliothèque nationale de France ms. fr. 32753: «Le Roy de Navarre... de gueles à l'escarboucle d'or pommelée alumée de sinoble en la moyenne en guise d'esmeraude», which may be translated as: «The King of Navarre... Gules, a carbuncle Or pommelly, lit Vert at the centre, in the manner of an emerald». This emerald is incompatible with the official blazon of the coat of arms of Spain; however, in my humble opinion, it would give this coat of arms a charge, the emerald, of greater heraldic substance than the roundel. Although I have painted it in a way that it is not known whether it is a large point or an uncutt circular emerald, in the blazon I have described it as an emerald both in Spanish and in English, since the point does not have a clear heraldic existence in Spanish and even less so in English.

Coat of arms of Yaroslav Pototsky emblazoned by me under his directions. [Académie internationale d'héraldique; 1952; figure 79] defines, in the case of a charge placed lower in the shield than its default position, the terms «abatido», «in base», «abaissé» and «abbassato» in Spanish, English, French and Italian respectively, and when it is specifically a chevron, [Académie internationale d'héraldique; 1952; figure 147], «cabria bajado», «chevron in base», «chevron failli (abaissé)» and «abassato». But [Real Academia Española; 2001; abatido] provides meanings more associated with mood and other negative connotations rather than with a geometric position; in geometry, for instance, «abatir» a plane means to rotate it through an imaginary hinge rather than to lower it, which creates confusion. Likewise, the English term «abased» also carries negative connotations. Therefore, I prefer to use the terms «en punta» ~ «chevron in base», which I believe are more illustrative.

Lema: «Amor Non Timet» de sable, con letras iniciales de gules, sobre una filacteria de plata.

Coat of arms devised by me, highlighted with lights and shadows, outlined in Sable, with a semi-circular outer contour and with a leather finishing.

Design rationale

The matrimonial and family arms of Darryn Carlo of the Commonwealth of Australia and longtime resident of the Kingdom of Spain, and Roberto Luchoro of the Kingdom of Spain, who were married in Madrid represents their lives together over nearly two decades cumulating in their union in marriage. The elements from their arms of the most significant places associated with their lives to date are as follows: The field of Vert from the arms of Darryn's hometown of Wagga Wagga in New South Wales, Australia, also represents Roberto's service in the Spanish armed forces and the Guardia Civil. The castle, taken from the arms of Alicante and Talavera de la Reina, represents Roberto’s birthplace and the city where both of them lived for a time. The Merino ram’s head also comes from Wagga Wagga. The Gules of the port and windows in the castle is a reference to the field of Gules in the arms of Talavera de la Reina. The two wolves are taken from the arms of the city of Bilbao in the Basque Country where the couple met and lived for many years and the seven stars are taken from the flag and arms of the region and city of Madrid where they currently live and work. The tinctures of Vert, Argent and Gules, shown in the port and windows of the castle, are also a hint to where they spent their honeymoon. The language of the motto, Latin, was chosen to represent the shared Latin heritage of the couple. The meaning of the motto «Amor Non Timet» is a powerful statement in itself and represents the strength of the commitment, the love and bond shared between them.

The coat of arms of Fernando Marán Bié designed by Ignacio Koblischek and emblazoned by me. In Castilian, the lion and the leopard are the same heraldic animal, which is referred to by one name or the other depending on its attitude: a) The lion is shown in profile and rampant, as in the coat of arms of the Kingdom of Spain. b) The leopard is passant and guardant, faces the observer, as in the coat of arms of the Kingdom of England. c) The «león leopardado» is shown in profile like the lion, but is passant like the leopard, as in the arms of the family of Claus Schenk von Stauffenberg. d) The «león leopardado» is guardant like the leopard, but is rampant like the lion; this is the case with the supporters of this coat of arms. The conclusion drawn from the four points above is that the direction of the gaze takes precedence over the posture of the body: when is guardant it is termed a leopard, and when it is shown in profile it is termed a lion.

The British heraldic artist Baz Manning, responsible for painting the coats of arms of the Order of the Garter in St George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle, produced in polychromed wood the armorial bearings of His Majesty King Felipe VI of Spain following his admission into the Order. During this process, I had the honour of assisting him by providing official documentation, explaining the heraldic differences between the arms of Juan Carlos I and Felipe VI, clarifying various points, and reviewing the final details of the work prior to its installation in Windsor. The illustration accompanying this post is a collage made from a photograph of the completed shield, crafted by him in painted wood, sent to me by Baz Manning while it was drying, with explicit instructions not to publish it until its formal placement in the chapel. I used that image together with my own artistic interpretation of the King’s arms to carry out a detailed, side-by-side verification of every element. Although my contribution was modest, I am deeply proud to have taken part in a work destined to occupy a permanent place within one of the United Kingdom’s most emblematic heraldic settings.

Coat of arms emblazoned by me, illuminated with lights and shadows, outlined in Sable, with an ogee outer contour and with a metal beaten finish.

Coat of arms of the House of Trastámara, founded by Enrique of Trastámara, later King Henry II of Castile, son of Alfonso XI and his mistress Leonor de Guzmán. Adopted at birth by Rodrigo Álvarez de las Asturias, he inherited the lordship of the County of Noreña the following year upon his adoptive father’s death. Later, his father the king granted him the County of Trastámara, among other lordships, giving rise to the House and the Trastámara dynasty, which began when Henry II ascended the throne after killing his half-brother Peter I in 1369. The Trastámara dynasty ruled in Castile, Aragon, Navarre, and Naples, and came to an end with our Queen Joanna of Castile, daughter of Isabella I of Castile and Ferdinand II of Aragon, both members of the House of Trastámara. This coat of arms has been created for Fernando Durán Cabral de Mello d’Alpoim as a preparatory work for his armorial bearings. In that coat of arms, the House of Noronha inescutcheon bears the arms of Trastámara in the 2nd and 3rd quarters.

Friar [Friar S.; 1987; page 15] writes it as «Pile reversed issuant from the base», but in [Friar S.; 1987; page 250], when transcribing a grant of the College of Arms of London, he uses «Pile issuant from the base». Other authors also refer to it simply as «Pile reversed». I prefer «Pile issuant from base».
