Party per pale Azur and Argent: a chevron between in chief a dressage horse salient, and in base three waves of the sea all counterchanged. Motto: «Prosequitur deinceps».

Escudo partido de azur y plata: un cabrio surmontado de un caballo de doma saltante y en punta tres ondas del mar, todo del uno al otro. Lema: «Prosequitur deinceps».

Coat of arms created by me for Domaica Maroto with: a pointed base; its field, the chevron, the horse and the sea are enamelled in plain Azure and Argent; the horse has its tail gathered in a braid, like some Carthusian dressage horses; and all outlined in Sable and with a parchment finish.

Canting arms with a horse of «doma» «y» [and] a «ca»brio over a «mar» «roto» [broken] in two by the per-pale division, which speak of their bearer «doma-y-ca mar-roto», while their motto says «Press on».

Symbolism

The motto of the bearer is «Prosequitur deinceps», meaning «press on» over the difficulties that are symbolised by a horse salient over static obstacles, the chevron, and moving ones, the waves of the sea; the horse leaps fearlessly from light, the Argent of the 2^nd quarter, to darkness, the Azure of the 1^st quarter.

Coat of arms created with the following characteristics: the base of the shield is pointed; its field is enamelled in plain Azure and Argent; the ordinary and the 2 charges are illuminated in plain Argent and Azure; the horse has a braided and gathered tail, in all my representations; and the whole is outlined of the field and finished with a watercolour effect.

For the angles and proportions of the chevron in this coat of arms I have based myself on some of the chevrons produced by Martin S.J. Goldstraw, who himself bears a Gules chevron in his coat of arms.

Martin Goldstraw is one of the founders of The Cheshire Heraldry Trust, illustrator of the website of this foundation Cheshire Heraldry, author of books on coats of arms and facsimiles, for example, on the county of Cheshire and a passionate devotee of heraldry.

Azure, a terraze in base Or, overall a gazelle statant Argent accompanied in honour point by the cross of the Cruz family.

De azur terrazado de oro, brochante sobre el todo una gacela parada de plata acompañada en el punto de honor por la cruz de la familia Cruz.

Coat of arms of Juan Pablo Íñiguez Cruz designed by Juan Lanzagorta Vallín and refined and emblazoned by me. Whereas the gazelles in the arms of his mother Rosalía Cruz Carballo and sister Julia Íñiguez Cruz were depicted as female, in this case the intention was to represent a male gazelle. For this reason longer horns have been painted and the male sex has been explicitly depicted. In heraldry, the representation of the male sex is common and almost generalized in certain heraldic beasts, especially in animals of strong or combative character such as lions, wolves, or bulls. In more stylized and elegant animals, such as stags or gazelles, such representation is more variable and depends largely on artistic, symbolic, and compositional criteria. In this particular case, I chose to depict it. The gazelle is accompanied by the cross that Jon Lanzagorta designed for his co-father-in-law, Mr. Cruz, the grandfather of Juan Pablo. For this reason the cross is referred to in the blazon as the cross of the Cruz family and is not specifically blazoned in this case, although it could be described as a cross patty whose arms are each formed by three compony pallets Argent, Purpure and Or. Note that the cross is itself a canting symbol, since it is the «cross» ~ «cruz» of the Cruz family. The honour point is a position within the coat of arms located on its central vertical axis, above the center of the shield and below the middle of the chief.

Azure, a terraze in base Or, overall a gazelle salient Argent, collared with a chain streaming to sinister Or conjoined to the cross of the Cruz family.

De azur terrazado de oro, brochante sobre el todo una gacela saltante de plata, acollarada de una cadena extendida hacia la siniestra de oro unida a la cruz de la familia Cruz.

Coat of arms of Julia Íñiguez Cruz designed by Juan Lanzagorta Vallín and refined and emblazoned by me. In heraldry, a gazelle «salient» ~ «saltante» represents a more restrained and less dynamic leap than a gazelle «springing» ~ «brincante», since in the salient attitude the hind legs, usually held close together, remain grounded while propelling the body upward, whereas in the springing attitude all four legs are depicted clear of the ground in mid-leap. The gazelle, like that of her mother Rosalía Cruz Carballo, bears around its neck the cross designed by Jon Lanzagorta for his co-father-in-law, Mr. Cruz, her grandfather. For this reason the cross is referred to in the blazon as the cross of the Cruz family and is not specifically blazoned in this case, although it could be described as a cross patty whose arms are each formed by three compony pallets Argent, Purpure and Or.

Guilaberto Lloscós y Soldevilla was grand prior of the Order of Saint John from 1449 to 1460.

Argent, a bull salient Gules within a bordure gyronny Argent and Sable.

Escudo de plata, un toro saltande de gules; bordura jironada de plata y sable.

Illuminated and parchment finishing.

He also known as Guilaberto Loscós y Soldevilla, and his coat of arms can be consulted at [García Carraffa, A.; García Carraffa, A.; 1968; volume II, page 407], who does not depict this bull with its tongue out.

The Lloscós lineage resided on the island of Mallorca and succeeded in the position of royal procurator of the island. Lázaro Lloscós was the procurator of the island in 1332, his son Mateo Lloscós was in 1392 and his grandson Mateo Lloscós was too. Mateo Lloscós helped King Alonso V of Aragon, the Magnanimous, with the expenses of the Naples campaign in 1435 and, therefore, the king donated the town of Bañalbufar and the title of baron. Mateo Lloscós was the father of Guilaberto Lloscós y Soldevilla grand prior of the Order of Saint John.

Bordure gyronny and bordure compony

This bordure presents a dual characteristic. It could be considered a bordure compony because it is composed of a series of segments, in this case, eight. However, since the sides of these segments are not perpendicular to the bordure, but are angled in such a way that all their extended lines would converge at the exact center of the coat of arms, it structurally resembles the division known as gyronny. It is for this reason that, despite its compony appearance, I specifically designate it as a bordure gyronny.

The tongue out

This is a reflection on the tongue out in animals in heraldry. I will rely on the representations found in [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909], as it contains numerous representations of animals in the most diverse heraldic attitudes.

In heraldry, tigers [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figures 322-325], lions, wolves, the bear, etc., are usually represented with the tongue out; they are heraldic beasts and they are carnivores.

However, the fox in [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figures 343-345] is not painted with the tongue out. It is classified as a heraldic beast and, moreover, it is carnivorous.

The boar is omnivorous, it is a heraldic beast and it is painted with the tongue out, as is done in [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figures 353-358].

From the above, there is no uniform association between the tongue out and being a heraldic beast or a carnivore.

On the other hand, [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figures 446-449] classifies eagles as birds, not as beasts; they are carnivorous and are represented with the tongue out. And the dolphin is a fish, it is carnivorous and is also represented with the tongue out [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figures 479-480].

There are heraldists who say that herbivores are not painted with the tongue out.

But donkeys, mules, and especially the horse are herbivores and they can be seen represented with the tongue out. For example, [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figures 360 and 362] paints the horse with the tongue out, and in figure 361, with the horse running, he does not paint the tongue out. In no case does he classify it as a heraldic beast.

[Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figures 368 and 370] paints the talbot, the mythical dog of heraldry, with the tongue out rampant and passant; but in more restful attitudes, such as standing and seated, he does not paint it with the tongue out. This could indicate that, when it is calm, it does not put the tongue out. But in the previous paragraph we have seen that he does not paint the horse running with the tongue out, and a horse running is not calm.

The bull [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figures 375-376] is not painted with the tongue out. However, I paint the bull with the tongue out and, although herbivorous, I claim the fighting bull as one of the most beastly figures of heraldry.

The stag does not carry the tongue out in any of its attitudes in [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figures 379-386], and other cervids [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figures 387-390] do not either.

Rams, sheep, lambs, goats [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figures 395-403] also do not carry the tongue out.

The badger is carnivorous [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figure 409]; as with the fox, it is carnivorous and does not carry the tongue out.

Therefore, in general, the tongue out cannot be fully associated either with heraldic beasts or with carnivores, just as not carrying the tongue out cannot be associated with herbivores or with calm attitudes. For example, the lion always carries the tongue out, even in its calmest attitudes [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figures 304-309].

The conclusion is that it is left to the discretion of the heraldic artist to paint or not to paint the tongue out, depending on what he wishes to express. For example, greater aggressiveness, greater movement, or liveliness could be associated with the tongue out.
